No Longer Science Fiction: Scientists Develop First-Ever Touchable 3D Holograms UPNA researchers created a 3D mid-air display allowing natural hand interaction with virtual objects using an elastic diffuser and high-speed projections. Dr. Elodie Bouzbib from the Public University of Navarra (UPNA), together with Iosune Sarasate, Unai Fernández, Manuel López-Amo, Iván Fernández, Iñigo Ezcurdia, and Asier Marzo, has achieved a breakthrough in three-dimensional display technology. The team successfully demonstrated mid-air 3D graphics that can be manipulated using hand gestures. Both Asier Marzo and Iñigo Ezcurdia are members of the Institute of Smart Cities. originally posted at
Human Consciousness Is a "Controlled Hallucination" And AI Can Never Achieve It Traipse into the world of artificial intelligence research, and it won’t take long to stumble across a concept known as the “singularity.” A loan word from astrophysics describing the heart of a black hole where known physics collapses, the term in the AI sense refers to a future artificial mind surpassing the intelligence of humans, leading to rapid innovation or destruction—depending on who you ask. originally posted at
