First Shareable Interactive Display

Posted by timothy on from the no-porn-here-aunt-margie dept.

Jeremy Newton writes "I want to share with you a new device that allows multiple moving images to be displayed to several users from the same screen at the same time. The project is called a "Shift in Time," my thesis project for NYU's Interactive Telecommunications Program. The driving goal of this project was to end fighting over the remote control, the gamepad, or the keyboard. It also makes room for new applications in marketing, games, and education. Recently it's gotten some buzz on Engadget.com."

    That is what we Mac users have been using for a while now. It is far more productive to have TWO screens collaborating than ONE screen shared. You wouldn't imagine what I can do with this thing. Take notes in class with other Mac users others on an ad-hoc Airport network, write up code, etc. I guess the screen concept is the next generation...
    ...but I worry some Dilbert's boss will say, "Buy one of these for 10 employees!" Which wouldn't work too well.
