  • Canon and Vimeo are attempting a video-equivalent of a Twitter novel. What probably excites me most is the fact that these short films – or the first one at least – will be shot on Canon SLRs, in HD.

The future of mobile computing

They called it “Sixth Sense wearable tech” at the TED conference.

This demo — from Pattie Maes’ lab at MIT, spearheaded by Pranav Mistry — was the buzz of TED. It’s a wearable device with a projector that paves the way for profound interaction with our environment. Imagine “Minority Report” and then some.

They called it “Sixth Sense wearable tech” at the TED conference.

I don’t know whether it wears that title well. I wouldn’t put on a Ms. CleoPod for any amount of money. But this prototype is an astounding leap forward in computing that had this techie in glee.

    Well soon, we won’t need to dial in. We’ll be wired, connected through wearable tech. We’ll broadcast what we think and see through the Internets and Zuckerberg will copyright our every thought.

    It’s a future I like to call “I’m'a get me the hell up outta here!”
