Loo9ker like the Holodeck from the USS Enterprise-D is closer then we thought, the Japanese are experimenting with 'touchable holograms'
This is AMAZING:
Good post, different than I had expected given there is a tactile reaction - I know already it's not a hard task to track movement in a 3d space so
gestures can be interpreted but with a tactile response it makes a difference.
It certainly won't be holodeck stuff as youd need more than the technology offered there to 'feel' things, but for the practical applications
they suggested, light switches, etc, great !
So many things occuring on the basic levels these days, I can't wait for the day (if it comes) where these things have evolved into the amazing
gadgets we want them to be.
I'm still waiting for the price of those brain reading gizmos to come down -
The sun has set in the west and is rising in the east in regards to technology. At least some governments invest heavily in innovation still...well
done Japan.
ok, ya...a bit bitter about living in the bible belt nonsense where the biggest claim to fame lately has been making better hollowpoint bullets
