MIT Students Create The Future With An iPad And A Glove | Science News | Scoop.it

The video the group has released shows some pretty fancy stuff, drawing objects in 3D real time, and then manipulating them in collaboration with others. There’s even some slick Minority Report-style interface there, with researches moving red and blue rectangles around in the virtual space they’ve created on the iPad.

Google Glasses and Hacking a New Aesthetic

Google Glasses and Hacking a New Aesthetic | Science News | Scoop.it

By superimposing a digital reality over a physical world display, Google Glasses transform everyday life into a source of new digital information - everything from today's weather to upcoming events in your calendar. The Google Glasses are the clearest sign yet that our digital and real-world lives will inevitably collide together in the future -- there will no longer be a divide between our "online" and "offline" worlds.

Cyborg Generation: It’s Not Just Siri, Prepare To Be Assimilated

Cyborg Generation: It’s Not Just Siri, Prepare To Be Assimilated | Science News | Scoop.it

Babak Parviz, who is a bionanotechnology expert at the University of Washington in Seattle, reports that augmented vision is not only possible, but augmented vision contact lens prototypes are being tested at this moment. Imagine being able to get directions to the closest hospital or restaurant, or have information pushed to you as you move through a city. Imagine that since this augmented reality lens is connected to your body, it could monitor and report essential bio information to the wearer such as glucose, cholesterol or blood pressure levels. While actual commercially available augmented lenses are still a way off, there are some people who have benefited from human cybernetic interfaces.
