Marvel at the true '3D floating' screen of MIT
Try to imagine the following scene: You are talking to a friend through the screen. Beneath this screen, the friend's "virtual" arms lift the flashlight from the table and give it to you.

Amazingly, this is no longer a scene in a science fiction movie, but has become a reality.
According to CNN, scientists at MIT (America) have invented the inFORM Dynamic Shape screen: A type of screen consists of many small squares on the surface that can change altitude, in order to turn digital content into physical objects. When used with 3D scanners such as Microsoft Kinect, this device can capture human movements, and recreate this movement into corresponding small "point" blocks.
"In essence, it's like staples you buy at museums," said Daniel Leithinger, a member of the Tangible Media Group project team, author of inFORM.
The inFORM has a much bigger purpose: Creating an extra "dimension" of information from the sender to the receiver: "When you move the arm, you can not only recreate the shape of the hand, but also can reproduce colors, print on hands ".
In his presentation, Leithinger showed many of InFORM's capabilities: Reproducing the shape of a car, coloring it, and video chatting with colleagues - allowing them to feel it. Real model without having to worry about geographical distance.
InFORM can act as a remote control, allowing users to interact with 3D menus created by bricks.
"This is not a real" 3D "because we can only raise or lower these bricks. We cannot move them sideways or control in any other way - we call this" 2 ". , "5D".
However, the remarkable ability of inFORM still creates great ideas: "In the future, we hope to create a pocket phone, and when you interact with objects on electricity. Your phone will "touch" them in a real way. "
"A lot of people commented," Oh, it's like superpower. "They said they felt like the Magneto character in the X-Men series, with the ability to control the world just by waving."
Hopefully, thanks to inFORM, in the future, we will have technology devices that can "interact" really with people, instead of the "flat" screens like today.
