Japanese researchers have created holograms that can be changed by human touch, called Fairy Lights, the new technology can be the future of human-machine interaction in 3 dimension. The holograms were made using femtosecond lasers, a laser that can excite physical matter to emit light in 3D form. The lasers can produce high-frequency pulses, from 1,000 to 200,000 pulses per second depending on the type of laser. Do watch the full demonstration video shared ahead.

Augmented Reality or Virtual Reality (VR) is the future of human-machine interaction and with gadgets and technologies like Oculus Rift, Google Glass, Microsoft Hololens and Samsung Beyond the list of cool gadgets coming to consumers in near future is extensive. Another promising Augmented Reality startup Magic leap which got acquired by Google under a multi-million dollar deal is now showing fruits. Do watch the results of extensive money spends and years of work demonstrated in the videos shared below.

The final consumer retail version of long awaited VR headset "Oculus Rift" got unveiled officially with "Oculus Touch" controller. Videos of both shared below for your pleasure.

Apart from announcing the good news that Windows 10 will be free for everyone using Windows 7 or 8.1 if upgraded within the first year, Microsoft also unveiled their holographic computing headset dubbed 'HoloLens'. To see how amazing Microsoft HoloLens is, or we should say "could be in future" - just watch the videos shared below.

Samsung has unveiled preview of a new camera named Project Beyond, the all new gadget comes equipped with 16 wide-angle full-HD cameras allowing 360-degree, 3D capture for streaming on Gear VR. Just imagine the fun of experiencing high-quality (a gigapixel of 3D data every second), 360-degree panoramic view with stereoscopic depth without any lag on a virtual reality headset. Do watch the video shared below.

Microsoft IllumiRoom got a whole lot better and is now being called Microsoft RoomAlive, as the name suggests the technology is a proof-of-concept showing how games of the future will be played out turning users surrounding into a video game level.

Till now majority of development in Augmented Reality space has been focused on consumer consumption, be it Google Glass, the Oculus Rift or the cheaper Chinese clones. DAQRI Smart Helmet seems to be first of it's king AR implementation targeted specifically for industrial usage, powered with much more computing power than any other wearable device the helmet also comes with a custom software called IntelliTrack which overlays augmented data onto real-world surfaces in real-time. There are sensors that wrap around this device that afford a 360 degree field of vision with HD video and photography and is supposed to operate just fine in low light. Do watch the introduction video shared below and see how augmented-reality is going to be next technology frontier.

It's really very exciting to see technology used in applications which are not some shiny new gadget for entertainment but something life-changing for it's user, while we have been reading a lot about Smart Glass technology which is being projected as being useful in many use-case scenarios like entertainment hub, a augmented-reality interface to the technology around us, medicine and even adult-entertainment. OrCam is the sort of use, everyone would love to get developed specially the ones who are visually impaired.

OrCam utilizes the power of today's advanced "Artificial Vision" technology to see what's in front of the wearer, process it and convey the acquired information to the user through a bone-conduction earpiece. The user simply wears a special small glass piece just like "Google Glass" which has the ability to read and understand words, symbols, and even faces. Do watch the practical demonstration video shared ahead.

We shared the news about Google's experimental 3D phone - Project Tango yesterday. Here’s an actual 3D map of a room captured with Project Tango phone, you can clearly see there is definitely a potential for this device to get success.
