BBC reports that touchless smartphones and TVs could hit the markets in 2012. So no buttons any more, a gesture is enough. It’s just a matter of time before the good old visual interfaces have totally changed, as well as the ways to control them. Google is secretly working on Augmented Reality-powered glasses that “provide a display with a heads up computer interface”, turning Augmented Reality-powered worlds with digital layers of information into an integral part of the urban fabric. (Click here for an ironic Augmented Reality future scenario byKeiichi Matsuda.) By the way, who needs glasses if we will be able to implant micro-computers into our eyes? Computers are close to becoming our sixth sense. And the city becomes an interface.
