Perspective is a new kind of computer, one that will revolutionize the world in just a few short years. It is a design for an augmented reality platform, which is essentially a computer that is directly integrated with reality, usually visually. Blatantly put, holograms minus the projectors. And we are not the first to do this. We are, however, the first to do this on a practical level.
If you look at the two most advanced AR systems of today, Eyetap [http://www.eyetap.org/] and Tinmith [http://www.tinmith.net/] you might notice that one looks like something from an 80s sci-fi movie and the other like an expensive toy. While these systems are very advanced, they are also very limited. Eyetap is what is called an indoor AR system, running completely based on constant analysis of visual images. This makes it slow andimpractical. Tinmith, on the other hand, is an outdoor AR system that uses a combination of sensors, which, though more swift, is bulky beyond belief, and still very slow.
So bottom line: WHAT IS PERSPECTIVE?
Perspective fuses together the best of both worlds to create a consumer device that needs neither gloves nor extensive visual cues. Interaction with data reaches new levels, and you gain the ability to control huge amounts with simple hand gestures.
Even basic computing tasks such as browsing the web, editing photos, or even organizing your windows is completely revamped. Digital interaction with reality becomes a posibility with this new device.
Perspective is estimated to cost about the same as a gaming laptop and could hit the market as early as 2011.
You will carry a life-sized display...in your pocket.
