Cebit 2009 IBM Cloud Computing

Uh...what exactly is cloud computing?

[digerpaji]

@Vortex1988 its a umbrella term for the next generation of computing. The concept is to do major storage and computing on remote locations that are energy efficient and green, and use your devices as almost merely a display to these computings. One example is to do graphical proccessing of a game on huge off site servers, and your computer just sending it your controller input, and recieving a video stream of the video game with highly processed graphics that your computer cant process.

looks like there is a "stuck pixel"

[art1anson]

what kind of display system is that?

kinda reminds me of a documentary i saw about being able to levitate small objects with really powerful sound waves...if this is based on that, that's freakin' incredible.

Lol.

The balls are attached to strings dude.

[art1anson]

damn....that's not that cool....lol

[Hypermobilemind]

Hahaha.

Yeah I thought it used magnetics or somethings and I was trying to figure it out, then I watched it in High Quality and was the strings lol.

Still looks pretty cool.
