Study Notes

  • Screenless video is a system for transmitting visual information without the use of a screen.
  • Screenless computing systems can be divided into three groups: visual image, retinal direct, and synaptic interface.
  • Holograms are a type of screen substitute that can be immediately transferred or stored on different kinds of storage media.
  • Virtual reality goggles and heads-up displays are debatably included in the visual image category.
  • Retinal direct systems project images directly onto the retina and promise extreme privacy when computing work is done in public places.
  • Future mobile devices will have fewer screens and fewer touches, and technology will connect directly through our senses.
  • Brain wave sensor implants and laser-based displays will be the two main technologies, making it easier for technology to mesh with our "reality vision."
  • The upcoming hardware revolution and cloud-based information streaming will make the user interface depicted in figures 9 and 10 a reality.
