I have been thinking a lot recently about converging technologies and the evolution of the PC and the interweb. Wondering what the average home pc will look like in five and then say ten years. This has all come about because I have been looking into a new pc. I don’t just want your average run of the mill pc. I have a few ideas coming together slowly and will post more on that as things develop.
The flip side is that I am reading some interesting tech articles and have come across a future solution, that is virtually available now. Imagine a small portable AV projector and a laser keyboard, you know, one of the ones where you project a keyboard onto a desk with a laser. Yeah. No I’m serious. When you press the pictures of a key on the desk you interrupt the beam and it can then tell where you have pressed.
OK so take a small portable projector and a holographic keyboard. Throw in a light pen that works the same way as a mouse. Press to click and extra buttons for options as well as special writing options/macros. All right you take these and slip them into your pockets. You’ll look like a bit of a nerd if you put the pen in your breast pocket, but if you have gadgets like these you can probably pull it of, just picture it:
You wander from your snazzy apartment out into the bustle of metropolitan life. You believe in not judging people but that can’t prevent the slight smirk from reaching the corners of your mouth anyway. All these smug ipod toters. Thinking they are the bomb with their little white headphones and portable mp3 doodads. Ah well. They’ll catch on soon for sure.
You pull into your friends coffee shop on the nearby highstreet and set your self up for a busy mornings
workblogging. You unpack your tripod and extend the legs, angling the mini projector so it points at the wall across the table from you. You plug the cables into the wall sockets and power it on. The glow of the projector easily covers the 30 inch space in front of you. The glowing red keyboard materialises instantly on the table half in your cup of coffee. You move the coffee and take a seat. Taking the pen you click to open firefox and get to work.
Ah thats the life. So
This wall unit is a thin client device and work exactly just as would a pc really. It gets enoiugh electricity to power itself from the ethernet cable. Plug in the USB keyboard and pen cables and the cable for the projector and login to your workstation.

Why have a keyboard? Seriously if scientists can make chips that read your thoughts and make robotic arms move why can’t they make one that would read your thoughts and type everything you’re thinking and same with pictures. Also make programming lot faster
Because technology isn’t advanced enough to separate what you are thinking at the the time from what you want to write down.
This has got to be the next or last step before they start bringing out computers that sit on your clothes like in star treck, where they interact with you by voice and speech recognition (yes I am a big treckie fan).
If scientists can uncover a wreck deeper than they usually go, and if they can genetically recreate missing organs and limbs, than this is no surprise. Soon, we’ll be communicating directly with the PC, making it possible to (yes) talk to computers, so to speak. I wonder if we’ll ever project our own pictures onto a screen, like with memories? That would be cool. Real cool.
That is impossible thus far. Separating our neurological system threw technology is not going to work. There is another answer tho that will turn our civilization threw evolution. We will by then obviously, have adapted such a technological achievement that we should be able to project thoughts, images, ideas. Our minds are too weak, too slow and too uneducated to handle such a feet right now. I predict a technological advancement and human evolution will make first contact with an ai system and wireless os programming in 250-400 years from now.
those combadges… kindof like the bluetooth but on your chest. they could do it now, now that I think about it.
this is really a master piece.
If you think this is a maser piece you haven’t dreamed.
Let me know when it goes on sale I’m sold
We have had this since before you had the WWWeb, and it is simple and cheap as long as it doesn’t have to run Windows. At least 2 users, and today certainly 8, and color 3D, including keyboard, and arbitrary sound depth. It does not have more than 64K and can’t have more than 128K, yet is fast and powerful. I’ve heard it said that moon missions did not have more than 32K, but I have not seen anything NEW in 32 megabytes for about a decade. It would be obvious to anyone who agrees that Windows does nothing useful at the ridiculous rate of billions of times a second, and the secret relies on the fact that Reality is 3D, so simpler technology than television is capable of 3D interface, indeed, technology which can go entirely unnoticed as apparently irrelevant and trivial compared to the interactive massless image of a “computer” generated by the device.
This tech is on our queue for release to public domain, since it is worth less than other projects. It is worth less because almost anyone can build it, and it can not run Windows. However, GREAT value maybe added with an app that occasionally turns blue and says “General Failure Reading Hard Drive”, an app that plays Solitaire, and an app that does nothing except waste time, named Anti-Virus. Because this device cannot get viruses, and anything that appears to is for fools who believe that machines can get sick. Fool the fools that good stuff is as defective as the other stuff they buy, and you create a market, it seems. Woud you like a remote control with 100 buttons with that? (All 100 buttons just do nothing but turn it on and off)
omfg when they goin 2 shops and how much will they be
how much is going to be
THIS LOOKS AWESOME!!!!!
