Microsoft’s display for the future reacts to your needs

We have all stylized our environment with all sorts of wonderful and high-def displays available, but Microsoft’s Applied Sciences R&D-team thinks this isn’t the future, as such display are blank when it comes to interaction. Thus, with an objective to make the future real to us, these lads have gone past the Surface and have developed Wedge – a visualization technology which recognizes our face and understands gestures.

Now, the developing group at Microsoft’s Applied Sciences believes that such a display would act as “an interactive window on the digital world, where the display will know who and where the user is, present content that is context aware, and allow natural interactions with the display surface.” This means that using light-guided technology with cameras and steerable light sources a display is engineered that watches and understands an individual’s requirement and optimizes itself for the purpose, doing so for all in the vicinity with multiple perspective 3D view. Microsoft is working on the prototypes of the Wedge, but there isn’t a word on when the technology could reach mass production. Hit the jump to enjoy a few videos in the mean time.
