Amazing Concept Video of Future Technology, “Future Vision Montage”
March 3rd, 2009Think what you want about Microsoft, but if you don’t know Microsoft Research, you don’t have the whole picture. I just found this concept video, titled “Future Vision Montage” on Gizmodo. I think I might have recognized more of the theoretical technologies than the casual onlooker since I’ve seen other Microsoft Research projects, but basically this video has technology do everything possible to maintain the appearance of magic. This is generally called “augmented reality” and is an unbelievably cool field of research.
