Holograms Coming To The Internet

05/05/2012 12:19 AM

Just when you thought you could enjoy the internet along comes the Hologram right out of Star Trek. This hologram development could be revolutionary. imagine communicating with your family from afar. Imagine your meeting with a room full of holograms. The world is shrinking. Oh, I am sure that with what ever good these sites develop, there will be a lot of blue sites. Imagine the surprise communication while you are on the subway or bus or other public place. Be sure your surprise is modest. I wonder how soon this will be commonplace?

I'm with you on this, only the 1% is going to get this in their houses. Way to oexpensive and energy dependant for me.

"only the 1% is going to get this in their houses"

That's what was said about computers just a few short years ago too, along with FAX machines, etc. Going back a few more years the same was said about telephones.

Even with that said, why shouldn't people who have developed an income that can support cutting edge technology be able to enjoy that? This 1% group of people which the Occupy idiots refer isn't just 1% anyway, there are many people who have great resources at their disposal. If the Occupy people want something different they should get off their lazy, misguided a$$'s and apply themselves and their energy to something that can raise their level of living. They don't realize that even the poorest people in this country have a higher standard of living than the high majority of the world.

Whew, I don't know where that little rant came from. Jimh77, I hope you don't take that personal.

You are right about that, but I would add that the 1% provide the rest of us with jobs making all their goodies, and providing services. Yacht builders need yacht customers. The people who bought a 286 computer for $2,000, allow us to now buy a laptop hundreds of times more powerful for $329. The people who bought a $750 video cassette player allowed us to buy one for $100, that we threw away for a DVD player. Without those who open up an industry we are stuck with slow or no growth in technology.

Going to the site, we find it has zero holographic content. They do not say that at all. The most they say is hologram-like.

Thank you for sharing this information. Imagine how far the technology will go in another five years. Plus, I had read in The Futurist Magazine several issues ago that science has already begun transporting very small particles of things, as in Beam Me Up, Scotty. In another 20 years, the world could be a very unrecognizable to us older farts.

Unrecognizable in 20 years? Probably sooner than that my friend.

yah...Its true Global spec predicted on that when I first join here during 90's.I read that article and that is very expected.When invisible became true and science made it true.During when no computer and watches people they can calculate hours using thier personal shadow when light of the sun became bright.Now light could be bring to life and made other ways of life.And now ISIAS made true of here predictions in the bible and world became more advance in using the gift of human being not the gift of GOD...
