The Future Is Flexible


Remember those really amazing futuristic LCD screens in that Steven Spielberg-Tom Cruise Film “Minority Report”?


Well that technology is here.

Apparently the military has had versions of this technology since the mid 90′s. Only now it’s gotten better, cheaper, and commercially viable. To the point where most everyone is familiar with (and uses it) on their ipods and iphones.

Now imagine your computers, your televisions, your every screen: flat, multi-touch, and FLEXIBLE!

This new Sony LCD may only be 2.5 inches, but it’s the just the first of the future wave. Because the best part of this tech is that it’s all organic, highly energy efficient, and will be cheaper to produce.  Big wins all around!

We at SuperForest loves this and can’t wait to blog from those future foldable computers of our own.  Now that’s men flying jetpacks, robots dancing, and bio screens just this week alone! What’s next? I’ve still got my fingers crossed for the Hoverboards from “Back to The Future”.
Any takers?

Future Dance

If you thought the kinship through dance video was cool, you’ve gotta see this:

It puts “doing the robot” in a whole new light. Crazy, crazy stuff!

For the snap-happy

And a big thumbs up to Sony who’ve been busy coming up with Odo – a new line of funky-looking devices powered by kinetic energy. The Spin N’ Snap Digital Camera caught my eye in particular. To power it, you simply poke your fingers through the two holes and spin the camera end over end. The holes in the camera also serve as the viewfinder! By gosh, what will they think of next?
