The IT&C sector is one of the fastest moving industries on Earth so things we know and like today might not be here or have the same form tomorrow, or better said we won’t recognize them as they will change a lot. The same will be the case with touch tablets, a relative young type of gadget today but which has the potential to evolve a lot more in the future, all depending on the imagination and ingenuity of researchers.

    Even if the technology hasn’t yet evolved to the level we see in popular SciFi movies the imagination displayed in those scripts is way ahead. All we have to do now is catch up with our imagination. That’s not going to be easy, or fast, but what’s easy in every day life, right?

    Gizmodo had put up a small video with gathered sequences from various popular SciFi movies where imaginative new interfaces and control methods are displayed. Minority Report and Avatar are there and even if the two movies have a few years between them the first one doesn’t seem outdated at all. Enjoy and let me know what’s your vision of the future tables as my is pretty simple: it will all be in our heads, connected directly to our brain.
