This Vision Of The Future Includes Eyeball-Embedded AR, Hackable Humans, And Gamified Everything
It's impossible to predict the future, but the idea that our technology will soon collide with our biological sense of vision continues to pop up in the world. Minority Report is the best fictional example, while Google Glass is obviously the closest real-world iteration of this type of collision to date. But a new video (below) posted by Sight Systems takes a stab at how this marriage of sight with technology could manifest itself in the coming years (or perhaps decades). The video depicts some kind of system in which the technology itself is embedded in your eyeball, meaning that tons of apps lead you through your day without any extra hardware at all. You see the main character, Patrick, work out on his floor, watch TV (on an entirely blank wall), get dressed using some type of virtual closet app, and use the Wingman app to help him through a date. As with any large shift in technology, this type of lifestyle will have its pros and its cons.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/qJPRZ5-9VSA/
