New technologies

I think these new technologies are just making our life easier every day. With the senses you can now control objects, that sounds pretty awesome but I don't know if I desire to have one. Maybe in the near future it would be great to sort of interact with the things that were design to stay on a wall and just make your own ideas. It sounds like it is a good proposal for education because we can now improve our skills with our sense of touch. The other thing in which I was amazed is how you can take pictures and edit them in the palm of your hand or any wall available. The information that this software has is incredible, it can relate everything in your hand with the facts online or included in the software.

The greatest things of this technology are definitely the way in which you interact with any object of the physical world. For example, it can show you a video of a related article in the newspaper in the wall or in the newspaper itself. Or it can also give you the information displayed in your boarding pass and inform you about the flight conditions. It can do almost everything,we can say it is the new way in which science and technology bond together with the computing technologies and create a software for everyone. This can also have its limitations like for example, if you're having a class or a meeting, i wouldn't imagine how would that be with everyone using this software. It would be like if there were robots in the room, all the values and other moral teachings would not be displayed.

When he says this software is going to be open source he refers that the technology is going to be available for people with no restrictions. This could be a great opportunity for us to take advantage of the situation and use this software to interact with technology. Without a doubt the software has everything it needs to succeed and I'm sure we would see it in the future but, when he says it would be available for everyone, I doubt it would last because people try to adjust it to their own purposes and goals. Making this open source would leave out other projects that were aiming to charge something, out of the market.
