Bandwidth and Augmented Reality NOW

Please forgive the notation style of this post.  Quicker for you to get the info, faster for me to write.  –brendan

More BANDWIDTH means the “computer” that you carry with you doesn’t need to have much storage space or processing power.  a computer somewhere else can do all your processing and storage for you and broadcast the results to your screen.  all you need is enough bandwidth to carry your user input off to the computer, and enough bandwidth to quickly carry audio and video back smoothly to your device.

+ Start with your wide-screen Cell phone

+ Add your home PC Computer remotely accessible OR maybe a Goolge hosted platform (yes its’ another effing Cloud)

+ Throw in some NASA subvocalization recognition technology http://www.magicspeedreading.com/subvocalization/nasa.html

+ Work together with Google Voice//Dragon Naturally Speaking to improve the quality of that silent speach recognition.

= your cell phone can control your home computer

+ NIA NIA http://www.ocztechnology.com/products/ocz_peripherals/nia-neural_impulse_actuator

= now your brain can control some features on your computer

+ MyVu stylish glasses that provide the wearer with a virtual widescreen (we’ll modify it to make it semi-transparent so that you can see the world and digital images together in front of you.)

= augmented reality.  create an instant visual “chatroom” silently among friends in a room. brain selects nearby ppl to open a chat dialogue, you subvocalize the text, use your brain to send.  they see it through their MyVu (nobody else can read it) and respond to you.

Prof asks “any questions”, and a silent room submits hundreds of subvocalized-to-text speech bubbles in the air above the heads of whoever is asking the questions. the prof skims the questions and eliminates uninteresting ones. then he selects excellent ones and copies them to the “board” which everyone sees at the front of the room through their MyVu.  (of course, if someone fears censorship they simply choose to broadcast their question universally, not just to the prof).  and everything that was on the board is available digitally to you later, because it’s stored in your computer at home, accessible anywhere through your cell phone’s high speed wifi connection.

take your augmented reality out on the soccer field for some real live WoW with (or without) your friends (both present and elsewhere)!  others will see you as your avatar.  Use NIA to throw fireballs, or whatever. etc.
