Los Angeles Technology, Design and Entertainment (TEDNew research and ideas are being presented at the conference (February 25-March 1). One of them is amazing technology Spacetop 3D computer. Gina Lee, a graduate student at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), showed off a 3D desktop machine that could revolutionize our computing.

The main theme of this project, in collaboration with Microsoft, is a computer with a clear LED that will overcome most of the limitations of traditional two-dimensional monitors.

The gesture control and 3D graphics on the spacetop will create a box-like structure where the contents of the screen will be arranged. The user can “touch” and format the file-folder by hand here.

It has two onboard cameras that follow the driver’s hand and eye movements and can adjust the interface accordingly. Icons and other UI options can be used from the illuminated structure. For some reason, even if some gestures do not work, there is no problem.

This technology allows you to turn the pages of a PDF, Word document, etc., like a normal book page. Using it, designers and architects can more easily accomplish professional tasks.

At present the development of spacetop is at a very early stage. It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post.
