Like you didn’t think this could ever happen, but something very similar to what we saw in Minority Report will soon make its way into our palms. It is called Wear Ur World (WUW), or 6th Sense and allows you to access information as though you always have a PC in front of you, but controlled by hand gestures. MIT researchers have combined a number of standard gadgets including a webcam, projector, and mobile phone, to form a brand new interaction experience. The wearer uses hand gestures combined with the gadgets to perform actions. At first glance it looks very similar to Microsoft's Surface, however Sixth Sense is portable and lets the user turn any flat surface, or perhaps any object, into an augmented-reality display.

So in the future simply walking up to a wall is all u need to do your emailing, checking the latest update from an old newspaper and all this at just the added cost of $300 to existing mobile technology.
