Futuristic Computing

Can you guess what the image above is? We can tell you to begin that these are not writing instruments. And they are not an array of laser pointers. But you can be sure of one thing, researchers in Japan are developing some of the coolest 21st century technology you can imagine.

It’s not a digital camera shaped to resemble a pen either. And if you answered that it might be some sort of webcam set, you’re looking at it from the wrong perspective. These devices are actually the components of a wireless, peripheral-less computing environment.

Not only is the monitor a projected display, but the keyboard itself is a tabletop projection. This new generation of computing will make the computer smarter, and freeing up processes for people, requiring less resources, and less power than any other computer.

 

The technology is only in development, at present, but you can bet that a holographic computing experience isn’t many years away, unless it is usurped by something that is yet to be discovered.
