No Touchie - The Next Step
Think that TED Talks video we all received about the multi-touch tech was amazing? Well, so did I. Then my friend pointed me to this. While it's not as well-developed, and currently not as useful as the multi-touch devices such as Microsoft's Surface, this new development from Elliptic Labs may be the next step in computer interfacing. Forget touch-screen. This is a screen you don't touch at all, and as the Gizmodo article explains, doesn't require you to wear any sensors. Here's the brief video demo:

It's kind of like magic. I really had no idea that technology was advancing as quickly as it is in today's world. I mean I thought the TED Talks video was remarkable, never mind the concept developed in the video posted on your blog. But to be honest, I do see both advantages and disadvantages to this type of progress in the business world. Do you think that continuous development is needed? Will we ever come to a point when technology can no longer remediate?

Hmm - I think if I knew the answers to those questions I could probably retire young. ;) So long as people keep pushing the envelope with software, and once-new developments become industry standards, I guess tech will keep improving. As for no longer being able to remediate - who knows?
