    Re: Future of user interfaces

    Ooh - very interesting - I could spend ages looking through these...I do think that the Touchable Holography might have applications on here. I could see it being used (in the future ) to give a visual representation when one person was trying to explain particular moves...

    What do you think should we put it in the suggestion thread, or should we wait for human holographs to catch up?

    PS number 4 - the immersive visualisation one would also work..

    Re: Future of user interfaces

    I'm a big fan of the sixth sense - demoed at TED earlier this year. The key difference is it's mobile; you're not tied to a big piece of hardware. We're almost at the point where the camera and projection technology could be built into a pair of glasses. Right now, I suspect the two biggest issues are data bandwidth and the processing power/battery life trade-off.

    Please state the nature of the medical emergency !

    Don't think I'd like WoW to go with the Touchable Holography.. it's hard enough as it is without actually having to duck axes in every battle !!
