Microsoft shows off early attempts at a holodeck - tech
(hx) 02:12 AM CET - Dec,29 2011
Stevie Bathiche, director of research at Microsoft's applied sciences lab, says to 'imagine a day where in your home, one wall is dedicated to being your magic wall. A wall where it can teleport you to another world without really going anywhere.' Bathiche shows off a number of systems that aim to accomplish this vision, including a system that projects LED light to detect a human being's movements in space, and a glasses-free stereoscopic display that can be 'steered' by the viewer as they move.

We had a programme in the 70's and 80's, called Tomorrows World. It was full of speculative shit that said we would be in flying cars for eg and we would be able to drive for thousands of miles on battery, etc,etc....
M$ live in that speculative world, and it's JUST that. THEIR WORLD!
Only a few knobs around the world have remote controlled, voice activated houses or private heli pads (must be the flying car equivalent, lol)
Kinnetic and 10+ft TV's jusy DON'T exist in a NORMAL = 99% world houses!!
Anyway, we get bored of things too easy -touch phones,voice activated phones etc
We DON'T build a home around technical gadgets, because we change them asap as soon as the NEW IPhone/IPad 4,5,6...... comes out every 6months to impress our ego.....sorry, 'friends'.
It's sugar coated, ADHD! By the end of the week, the novelty wears off.
M$ are like Apple in that they have their dedicated clones =sheep. They will buy ANYTHING from them and think that the world revolves around THEM..
Narrow minded individuals will see this as the best thing since sliced bread. Me, i'm still waiting for PROMISED shit from 40+ years ago......
