Microsoft's Multi touch surface table

I was sent this video from Paul at MookTown Blog and thought... Wow this is amazing. I have seen this technology in its early days but Microsoft seems to have adopted it and sees a bright future for it. Check out the video below and see what you make of it, click the picture to play =D

Sony's Flex, full colour OLED screen

Following from my last post of Philips flexible screen, here is Sony's FULL colour OLED screen on show... I have to say this is much better and just looks awesome!

A Giant Liquid Telescope for the moon!...

This Large Telescope has a 6 meter primer liquid mirror!
Roger Angel a leading Astronomer from the university of Arizona has big plans for this telescope, he says it will be 100X more powerful than our currant Hubble Telescope floating round our earth. This is the largest known mirror to be made and will give world wide Astronomers a better view distant stars and Galaxy's. We might even be able to see other planets far closer like the one that was found last month that seemed to have oceans on it. At the moment we can only gather technical data of stars and planets that are to far to see and just create a model using special computer software.
Let the stars come closer i say!

A4 sized paper thin LCD Screen...

LG Philips have produced the first A4 sized LCD screen that can bend. Its thickness is only 0.3mm and can display 4096 colours, LG Philips have said that it is designed to be energy efficient and only needs power when the image changes... The uses for this type of display are endless for new product designs or for use in the advertising industry.

Check out the picture below of the LCD screen =D

All electric Car - Spyder...

This is a neat electric car that actually doesn't look that bad or something from Back To The Future... The UEV (Universal Electric Vehicle) Spyder costs around $70,000 and is a 2 seater sports car. This UEV can reach a top speed of 100MPH and can do a 0-60 in 7 seconds with a range of 70-150 Miles before it needs a re-charge, apparently the manufacturer of this car has an option to upgrade the batteries with li-ion batteries giving the car a 250 Mile range, unfortunately this would be an extra $30,000 on top of the original price tag!

3D Desktop Printers....

3D printers have been around in the industry for years, manly within the prototyping and manufacturing industry of aeroplane parts, car parts etc before they go into full production, now a company called DesktopFactory will soon release one for the home user. Prices will be high to start with but as usual they say they will fall over time.

When they are first released they will cost just under $10,000 (£5,000ish) then they could fall to $1000 (£500ish) within 4 years according to DesktopFactory. The materials (consumables) for this type of printer will however i think be expensive....

These 3D printers work by building up layers and dots with a plastic material and hardened with procession heating. Just imagine in a few years you could download a plan off the Internet for use with these 3D Printers and print them out within a few hours depending of course on how complex the object will be =D

The possibilities of this product will be endless, you could even print yourself for example a new phone cover, PC mods... I can also see legal issues regarding certain products being duplicated and then sold, but hey what isn't illegal these days :P
