Minority Report Screen

Kosmiche · 14 Jul 2012 at 23:15

Just wondering, how far off is the Minority Report screen from becoming a reality?

If you are unaware

I have not followed the development of Microsoft Surface, is it basically a inferior version of what we see in this movie.

Will the next version of Surface be a exact replica of the Minority Report screen?

Thanks

Certain types of people today are having something called information overload causing headaches, migraines and other brain activity problems.

This needs to be ironed out before even thinking about going ahead with a technology of this type.

Units should be shipping this year to emulate the interactions. No need for silly gloves, either & the interface is only ~$70 for good accuracy.

The screens themselves will be another couple of years, but we have similar transparent offerings available today, smaller size though.

Those people can **** off

There are a lot, I'm sure, who can take advantage of such tech.

Should we hinder development of everything just because some people find it hard / "too much" to use?

**** them

OLED?

Samsung Smart Window, mixed with Kinect.

That should do it

What he said was in no way indicative of what you've just implied. :confused:

Well it is in a way. People that are supported still require help with the use of technology and it aid's their life.

I would just like holo tech to become mainstream. Could you imagine getting out of bed and having a floating HUD near you displaying time, weather, news, emails and stuff whilst waking to the kitchen?

That would be awesome

Referring to me? Because I meant that it wasn't on a screen at all, it actually floated through the air and was fully interactive

holographics are the future

Yes because "Don't hold back technological development to cater for a minority" is exactly the same as "Exterminate all disabled people" :confused:

That's one of the most fantastically retarded leaps of logic i've ever seen
