The Next New Thing

Although the concept of holograms has been around for a while and has been used in movies and other aspects, it is yet to be embraced as a part of new media.  Hologram technology is an idea in new media that I have been thinking of for a while.  Computers that use this technology will soon be a norm and it will again affect the way people live, similar to many other new media.

I envision that holographic technology can change the way people use computers, phones, televisions and other devices. For instance, instead of navigating these devices by actually touching them, punching keys etc., people will be able to enjoy holographic screens and manipulate them in real time without hand-held device and other equipment. This is incredible technology and I believe it will become the new media of the near future.

  1. That's exactly what my mom wants! Haha. I see that so often in movies and animes that I really think it could be very convenient as well. Hopefully one day that will come to exist.

  2. This will definitely be a part of the future. There is already a holographic keyboard that can be projected on a desk and used as a regular keyboard.
