This is the birth of a new segment on my blog, I often have ideas of things I want but the majority of the time they’re either impossible or just unavailable in today’s world. Out of my frustration I intend to post some of my ideas some of the time to the world in hopes that somewhere in the future they will be used and become a reality. Here is the first of hopefully many.

So the other night while me and @BurbankBoy were discussing what computer systems we wanted for our future home and idea popped into my head “Why not have a supercomputer-like system hooked up to tons of 3D HD Projectors and tons and tons of cameras all around the room?” They will in turn be the only display and input peripherals.

Imagine if you would, standing in a room and saying a command to turn the system on or reactivating it or maybe just having it set to come on when you enter said room… a text prompt appears in front of you and a virtual keyboard also appears you have the option of voicing your password or typing it in. Once you’re successfully logged onto your system you just have to say the name of the program that you want to open up and a virtual screen will appear somewhere in front of you, you can then touch this virtual screen and move it wherever you like and also touch two corners and drag to enlarge or shrink this screen.

Forget about Skype and other similar programs of today. With this setup you can project yourself into someone elses house and them into your and both have a conversation almost in person right next to each other but still be on the opposite sides of the world.

Gaming of today is just laziness imagine having a round tile on the floor with a treadmill like movement that can go in all directions you stand on this and you can walk run in any direction you please and a game will be projected all around you you can hold a virtual weapon and swing it at enemies or cast spells at them run in any direction you please… exploring vast jungles or caves as if you were really there. The cameras will track all of your movement and when you’re done playing you can lock the floor tile so it won’t move anymore and you can easily just walk off.

Maybe none of that is really your thing… But at least you can watch a movie and enlarge the screen in front of you… are bring cyber sex to an all new level and actually be in the same room together virtually… Whatever you can imagine you would be able to do it
