In “The Avengers,” Iron Man
manipulates a number of holographic computer displays with just a few
movements of his hand. We also saw this type of technology in
“Minority Report.” Today, this technology is being developed, and
motion controls already exist through Microsoft's Kinect or Sony's
PS-Eye. With the 2012 BMW 3-series, you can see your speed, the
posted speed, and an arrow pointing the way for navigation, all
displayed on your windshield as a sort of “Heads Up Display”
(HUD). HUD's are already used on many fighter planes. To experience
personal augmented-reality, Google Glass is the current option—a
hands-free smartphone designed as a pair of glasses which responds to
voice commands.
