Robbie Tilton (check out his website - awesome design) created this cool video that looks like it's straight out of Minority Report or Iron Man using three.js and Leap Motion.

Using threejs I created a 3D scene and rendered four unique camera angles to reflect off of a plexi glass prism. It creates the illusion of a 3Dimensional volumetric display in it's most crude state. I also attached my Leap Motion to start controlling the globe with a simple point of the finger.

One Laptop Per Child project founder Nicholas Negroponte said that the organization is accelerating its development of the XO-3 tablet computer and will have a working prototype by December 2010, two years ahead of projections. Negroponte said the final product would cost US$75.

Our dreams of an actually useful wearable computer have still yet to materialize, but the second-generation Kopin Golden-i concept -- now inconspicuously Motorola-branded -- is an interesting attempt. It's based around a head mounted, magnified SVGA LCD that is meant to be "glanceable" while the user remains aware of their surroundings. The Windows CE-chugging, OMAP3530-powered computer onboard is voice controlled and also motion sensing (for cursor control), and can hook up with other devices over Bluetooth, WiFi and USB. Of course, it remains to be seen if software can make something like this truly usable, but it certainly looks like the hardware is all there -- and the form factor isn't pure tragedy either.

CityWall Hki

CityWall is a large multi-touch display installed in central down town Helsinki which acts as a collaborative and playful interface for its urban surroundings. The new 3D interface launched 8 October 2008 allows interacting with 3D worlds of related information and enables multiple content, multiple timelines and participants to generate content.

CityWall remains as permanent installation in Lasipalatsi, with many thanks for support from Tommi Ilmonen at http://multitouch.fi/ and the HIIT team Jari Kleimola, Rodolfo Samperio and Peter Peltonen. The work has been funded by the 6th Framework Research Programme of the EU, through the IPCity project http://www.ipcity.eu (FP-2004- IST-4-27571). The video was shot and edited by Visa Noronen.
