BiDi Screen from MIT Media Lab (Bidirectional Screen)

this would be great technology for navigate in TOKYO city

[EmancipatedSquirrel]

this reminds me of George Orwell's 1984, soon TV's would be able to peer into our rooms. then again kinect could do that already

[MrDeaw0]

I burned my potatoe down T_T

[kwstas1995]

Why the fuck is lady gagas bad romance on 4th place of suggested videos? I don't get it!!!

[Awildatrimblex]

ehbin mega aufgewirbelt und ungezogen heute wer mag mit mir schreibn und so

[Shinkada]

Viewpoint-independent 3D display is far more important than fiddling around with silly scifi ways to control your TV. I hope this tech is put to the use it should be. =/

[Shinkada]

@Gustav0M Too late. Some companies have already started using the same kind of technology as medical EEGs to bind commands to thought processes, and thus control things with thoughts.

[KeepingModern]

This would be great technology for GPS in cars.

[annjibabii]

looking for some fun if you know what i mean just msg meh

[t0byman]

ALLMOST MINORITY REPORT!

[JuanesJamon]

Still, I miss the VR goggles with touch sensitive gloves... Whatever happened to those? It seems al lot more sensible than a glossy screen, for personal use that is...

[LunchAnderson]

Cool tech, but a truly horrible choice of music. Gah!

[follyarat]

but for project natal you have to be far away

for this you can be close or far away...

[kickit246]

neat, but all this cool tech stuff is all prototypes. I see so much cool tech and its gonna be like.... so many years until its applied to something consumer based and mass produced. Blah.... O well. (I suppose there are things like this like Wii, PS3, but still... I donno, hopefully u know what I'm getting at)

[Shinkada]

@kickit246 Actually a simplified version of the screen has already been applied by Range Rover. Their luxury line has a screen that is one image from the passenger's seat and a different one from the driver's.

Usually when technology gets heard of once when it's a prototype and never again, it's due to cost, inefficiency, or critical flaws (see: flying cars). This isn't the case with this.

[danconia3873]

Microsoft Natal already did it...

[amperion1]

yep, but cameras are in front of screen, in here we got two cameras behind display

[funnymax4u]

@eddie6199 that would be fucking AWESOME mixed with epic

[Hyperspacey]

Dear MIT,

I LOVE YOU.

Signed,

Me

[TheCyoruk]

Thats an SID.. (Still in development)

[hoboX10]

This is crazy

[baddspella]

man look at that guys sleave !! dryed buggers on his sleave

[09Thed]

Future going UP

[swingcity7]

You guys are awesome! ROCK ON!!!!

[pulsar]

so laggy

[AxelLNo1]

I admit, that this is interesting, but nothing more, let alone the future! Simple reasons: Our eyes look forward, so the screen is better in front of us vertically. If so, the than the touchscreen concept is a pain in the ass, because nobody likes to lift an arm for an extended period of time to move around objects.

[bcpsleeperkid4]

valid points but that's very narrow-minded thinking.

[Tomatis]

the voice sounds bored :(

awsome screen tho :D

[Malevol3nt]

Yaaaaay screen flicker!

[UnrelentingAssault]

The force is with you.

[jonee39]

The should let Steve Jobs tour their operation. Heh heh heh.

[zezerath]

Very Cool!!!! It Would Bring Gaming To The Next Level

[ifallenv6]

Very cool stuff.

Though the guys voice and the music are very generic considering how epic this device is.

[hitachi088]

doesnt work in dark ...

[knapret]

I think a heat sensing camera or a more light sensitive camera would make it work perfectly well in the dark.

[hitachi088]

yeah , but do you want to paid 300$more?

the screen itseft in the future should cost like 500-700$ for a 15inch screen ...

[caboos6]

good to know that Millionaires In Training is still putting out some of the best minds in the country.  this is the future

[sin331]

brilliant

[surgeyX]

Why is it so laggy?

Lol.

[tylersmyler]

because its from the future

[Zeuspwns]

really interesting!

[helmeester]

ik krijg al een lamme arm als ik er naar kijk. Wel cool btw

[xjyxjy2]

using an outside torch to light something inside the machine! it is to unbelieve! Well done, Mits!
