Great New Device

This is an incredible piece of technology from the TED Conference.

Imagine a camera that scans your hands and the things you are holding, and then projects information (such as Amazon ratings on books, price comparisons on products) right on the thing you are holding.

That doesn’t even do it justice. Just go look at the 8 minute video. I am not all that crazy about all the new multitouch surfaces and “finger tracking software as computer interface” projects that seem to be the rage in research right now, but THIS excites me.

Oh, and be careful. If you start browsing the TEDTalks site, you might never have a moment of spare time again.

You could mention that TED talk are also available as free podcasts, and all good. I’ve been hooked for over a year.
