In the future, we won't even need eyes since everything will be piped right into the brain. I guess people without brains will still need monitors! 😛

Cheers!
 
I was hoping this would be IBM's one-inch CRT I've heard they were working on.
I could stand that..... the size of an LCD with the quality of a CRT. Less expensive than LCD too! (maybe not for the first year...)

And you people hoping for holodecks.... well... get a life. 😉
 
Wonder if we'll ever be able to play our p@rn on these things in ten years time? 😀
Sorry for lowering the tone of this thread but im sure others had exactly the same thought when reading this thread 😉

<< I had visions of young adolescent peering at his p@rn action through a magnifying glass at that thing in the linky. Shuffling about like crazy for best viewing position.

<< Well, this stuff is in its infancy! Just think where it will be in 10 years! Holodeck anyone? >>



We all know if we had holodecks we would have so many gigs of 3d porn hahahah
 
I was thinking it would be nice to have say a stream running over a waterfall in a clearing of a rainforest with birds flittering between the trees with all the sound effects.
Very cool lava lamp 🙂

Me want!!. the display will have to be big i suppose... and more thatn the 'hundreds or colours' they got.
 
Ten years from now i would like a nice big plasma screen for my primary display, VR headset for gaming and one of the above for my own Virtual Tropical Rainforest.
Just one step down the road to becoming a chair ridden moron i guess, Matrix stylee 😀
If this kind of thing ever ends up in the mainstream consumer domain would be very interesting to see how the media could develope its potential.
Just wonder if i will still be interested when im approaching pension collecting age though as im doubting we will ever see this go mainstream entertainment in my working life 🙁
