Holographic interface

[El_Machinae]

I'm not kidding. Remember the computer interface on Minority Report? This has it beat. I don't know all the details, but it looks wicked cool. You absolutely have to check out the video.

Gods ... this has me drooling.

 

[Truronian]

Wow

That is mighty impressive, although I think it'll need fine tuning for truely 3D Civ...

 

[bad_ronald]

That reminds me of the Tollan computer terminals they showed in Stargate five years ago... clearly this technology is outdated.


J/k It looks cool.

 

[El_Machinae]

Once the technology is invented, the amount of time required to drop the price and tweak it out is MUCH faster than people realise.

This thing is awesome looking.

It reminded me of Final Fantasy: the Spirits Within.

 

[Truronian]

I can't imagine it would be too easy on the eyes. Other than cleaning, does this technology have any pros compared to your regular flat screen moniter?

Three words: Interactive Jessica Alba.

 

[El_Machinae]

That you can't touch?

Are you sick? That would be awful!

I think it would be a cool interface. You could put it in the dash of your car, and turn it on and off as needed.

 

[Wolfe Tone]

Awesome. With that I'd definatly have a rotating Death Star as my screensaver.

 

[El_Machinae]

Did anybody get to the part where the guy played with the picture of the watch.

We're talking interactive here!

 

[Perfection]

I just want to know how the damned thing works.

I dont think this is actually 3D, so you may end up with a Death circle

You could put it in the dash of your car, and turn it on and off as needed.

That would be good, I hadn't thought of that. Imagine pulling over and having your windscreen turn into a a huge GPS system, or a movie screen!

I share you enthusiasm in exploreing the curves of Jessica Alba in 3D.

 

[Wolfe Tone]

I know, but in that video they had had a car rotating that kind of looked 3D, a death star done in that way would be cool. Anyway a 3D interface should be the next step.

Kind of like what they had on this movie, The Fifth Element? That would be cool.

This thread is starting to remind me of this thread.

 

[El_Machinae]

Then I'll kindly ask that people not get this thread modded.

I've heard that the image we're seeing is caught in the air. So, it requires air to work.

Good thing we live where we do, then.

 

[Leonel]

The image looks rather wavey but it's a good start! The future is now!

 

[blackheart]

I think this technology depends on the humidity of the air or something like it.

 

[Perfection]

I wonder if it can ask someone to state the nature of the medical emergency.

 

[Abaddon]

This, is, like, totally , COOL!

When will i be able to plug this into my PS3 ?
