Video into Thin Air
IO2 Technology has released the M2i, a "virtual touchscreen heliodisplay."
Exactly what is a virtual touchscreen heliodisplay, you ask? It's a touchscreen video display that projects video into thin air.
The bottom frame of the image hover[s] a few inches from the Heliodisplay and project[s] up to 28 inches (71cm) into the air at the highest point... The interactive M2i allows desktop navigation in a PC environment such that floating images or video can be manipulated supporting a 'virtual' touchscreen enabling cursor control.
The projector works by projecting video onto a sheet of "transformed air." No word on how exactly the air is transformed. The image quality is not perfect, and for some reason they have chosen a 4:3 aspect ratio, but this is a really cool first step.
See photos, and a movie of the M2i in action, here.
