View the internet with a wave of your hands
Big fan of the Minority Report? Well you're going to love this, finally it's our turn to look as cool as Tom Cruise!
Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have created a new device known as 'Wear Ur World' (WUW). The WUW turns any surface into a computer touch screen, users can project the internet onto any objects or surface by simple waving their fingers in the air, conjuring informtaion seemingly from the air.
The MIT is a world class educational institution, with teaching and research being its primary purpose. MIT aims to advance knowledge and education students in science, technology and other areas of scholarship to best serve the nation and world in the 21st century.
The innovative device allows users to take photographs, project a watch onto their wrists and even dial a telephone number on their hand. It also means useful information such as train/flight delays can be viewed at a wave of a hand. Or, alternatively why not take it into to your next boardroom presentation and wow your potential clients and employees with the possible presentation projector of the future!
The WUW is expected to be commercially marketable by 2011.
