How far are we from achieving the advanced interfaces that can be seen in the movie Minority Report? Well, we are not very far indeed. The mist screens are not new, but Displair surprised us all two years ago when he unveiled a prototype fog screen with multitouch interface. But now the company has officially unveiled this technology and who have attended the 2013 CES will prove rotten.
This system, which is a little simpler than it appears, makes use of three things: the fog screen, a projector and an infrared camera.
Demonstrations have been held in the CES showed Displair screen with a projection of Windows 7 on it. A PlayStation Eye camera connected to the PC via USB is used to project an infrared light on the projection.
And we are almost ready. Now we just have to load an application like Google Earth or if we feel like we can give a little more realism to Fruit Ninja slicing fruits like they're in the air.
