Now this is user experience. Quite literally. This is brilliant. Watch as Pranav Mistry takes you through the concept of using a paper "laptop". His goal is to bridge the machine and the information we want and crave into the physical world. This will blow your mind. This work is the #1 reason why TED was created. This system is cost effective -- $300.00 And you can bridge the worlds. This folks, is the future.

It's things like this that make me stop in my tracks and think further down the particular path of this technology and hundreds of ideas come to my mind that could be done with it. I am stunned and awash with ideas. This is beyond Minority Report's darkened room and special gloves, and I really want to be working with this tech right now. What also comes to mind is the "Holoband" tech described in the first episode of "Caprica", where people interact with a virtual world through a holo-band that goes over the eyes like glasses but allow you to visually participate in a holographic world while sitting completely still.

Check out the video at 6:26 in the video for Caprica, and watch how she accesses the holo-world. She pulls out a piece of paper and dials her way in. Sound familiar compared with the tech you've just seen above?

Now you've seen two steps into the future. (Nevermind the fact Pattie Maes mentioned a brain implant with this kind of tech. Who needs an external device if you have one in your brain? ;D Okay...three steps...)
