The Display Evolution

Jessie Atkin posted a blog on Digital Landing! Read about the latest development in the wearable computer.

Gadgets continue to evolve and (for the most part) shrink. That particular trend has yet to slack and MIT is on the band wagon.

MIT is basically working on a wearable computer that can turn any surface into a display. Right now the display is hooked up to a mini projector, a mirror, and an internet enabled cell phone, but it’s a start. At least it helps where cell phone screen sizes are still concerned.

It’s definitely a step towards a Minority Report type computing system, which is pretty cool. Our minds project images of imagination why not project images onto any surface of reality? It makes sense to me.
