Leap Motion

By
Multi-touch desktop is a (miserably) failed product due to the fact that hands could get very tired with prolonged use, but Leap Motion wants to challenge this dark area again with a more advanced idea. It lets you control the desktop with fingers, but without touching the screen.

It’s not your typical motion sensor, as Leap Motion allows you to scroll the web page, zoom in the map and photos, sign documentss and even play a first person shooter game with only hand and finger movements. The smooth reaction is the most crucial key point here. More importantly, you can own this future with just $70, a price of a premium PS3 game title!
If this device could completely work with Oculus Rift to simulate a real-time gaming experience, gaming is going to get a major make-over.
thank you guys..

Tangible User Interface

By
Tangible User Interface (TUI) Imagine having a computer system that fuses the physical environment with the digital realm to enable the recognition of real world objects . In Microsoft Pixelsense (formerly known as Surface), the interactive computing surface can recognize and identify objects that are placed onto the screen. In Microsoft Surface 1.0 , light from objects are reflected to multiple infrared cameras. This allows the system to capture and react to the items placed on the screen . In an advanced version of the technology (Samsung SUR40 with Microsoft PixelSense), the screen includes sensors, instead of cameras to detect what touches the screen . On this surface, you could create digital paintings with paintbrushes based on the input by the actual brushtip. The system is also programmed to recognize sizes and shapes and to interact with embedded tags e.g. a tagged namecard placed on the screen will display the card’s information. Smartphones placed on the ...

How technology will change the future of work

By
How many of us can say, with certainty, what jobs we would choose if we were kids today? The pace of technological change in the time I’ve been in work is only a shadow of what we will see over the next 15 to 20 years. This next wave of change will fundamentally reshape all of our careers, my own included. It’s estimated that some 65% of children entering primary schools today will likely work in roles that don’t currently exist . We expect the pace of change in the job market to start to accelerate by 2020. Office and administrative functions, along with manufacturing and production roles, will see dramatic declines accounting for over six million roles over the next four years . Conversely, business and financial operations along with computer and mathematical functions will see steep rises. There is a central driver for many of these transformations, and it is technology. Artificial intelligence, 3D printing, resource-efficient sustainable production and robotics will f...

Wearable Computer

By
Wearable Computer As the name suggests, wearable computers are electronic devices which you can wear on you like an accessory or apparel . It can be a pair of gloves, eyeglasses, a watch or even a suit. The key feature of wearable UI is that it should keep your hands free and will not hinder your daily activities. In other words, it will serve as a secondary activity for you, as and when you wish to access it. (Image Source: sonymobile.com ) Think of it as having a watch that can work like a smartphone. Sony has already released an Android-powered SmartWatch earlier this year that can be paired with your Android phone via Bluetooth. It can provide notifications of new emails and tweets. As with all smartphones, you can download compatible apps into Sony SmartWatch for easy accessibility. Expect more wearable UI in the near future as microchips bearing smart capabilities grow nano-smaller and be fitted into everyday wear.
