World’s First Updatable Holographic Display

February 10, 2008 at 7:47 am

Researchers at the University of Arizona have broken a technological barrier by making three-dimensional holographic displays that can be erased and rewritten in minutes. The holographic displays – which are viewed without special eyewear – are the first updatable three-dimensional displays with memory ever to be developed, making them ideal tools for medical, industrial and military applications that require “situational awareness.”

The device basically consists of a special plastic film sandwiched between two pieces of glass, each coated with a transparent electrode. The images are “written” into the light-sensitive plastic, called a photorefractive polymer, using laser beams and an externally applied electric field. The scientists take pictures of an object or scene from many two-dimensional perspectives as they scan their object, and the holographic display assembles the two-dimensional perspectives into a three-dimensional picture.

Play Guitar Hero with a Real Guitar

February 8, 2008 at 11:14 am

Try your skills on the real thing or just learn to play. Available for both the PC and Mac, Guitar Rising lets you use any real electric guitar, plucking at those real strings and playing some real music. The kicker is that the user interface on your computer monitor mimics that of Guitar Hero, firing notes across the screen and getting you to pluck them at the appropriate time. Instead of just five fret buttons, Guitar Rising gets you to watch all six strings. Easy mode introduces you to the basics, but expert really forces the rock hero out of you. Check out the video for a better idea of what Guitar Rising is all about.

Nokia Scentory Phone

February 7, 2008 at 12:58 pm

This Scentsory concept phone by Nokia uses the human senses of sight, sound, touch and even smell for a multi-sensory experience. It has the basic audiovisual features, but Scentsory could also detect, transmit and emit smells, as well as radiate colors, lighting, and temperature from the caller’s environment. It has a sort of electronic nose that works with highly sophisticated sensors. The nose samples the odor of the caller’s environment and transmits this to the recipient electronically. Apparently this works due to distinct genetic patterns that are associated with every odor, and it’s simply a matter of matching electrical harmonics with gene activity. The perception of a smell by electrical stimulation could be technologically induced.

The dual-screen mobile has an LED touchpad, speakers, a camera and temperature sensors.
