Peephole Displays

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the now-isn't-that-clever dept.

benh57 writes "A student at Berkeley has come up with a novel approach for navigating small handheld displays. In effect the display is a "peephole" into a much larger information area. You see different parts of the display by moving the handheld around - no more tiny scrollbars. Check out the DiVX movies to see it in action. It even works in 3D!"

    It will look like a bunch of DDR freaks on mescalin.

    Why do you assume that people from former East Germany (the Deutsche Demokratische Republik) are "freaks" and use hallucinogenic drugs?

    Or is a "DDR freak" somebody who runs applications that benefit from the increased memory bandwidth of double data rate SDRAM?

    Or do you mean the game whose fifth mix included a song titled "Hot Limit" and subtitled "We Drink Ritalin"?
