QPC's Articulated Naturality Web looks to one up augmented reality
We've already heard QderoPateo Communications (or QPC) talk up its notion of "articulated naturality" on smartphones, but it looks like the company has really gone all out for the World Economic Forum's recent Summer Davos Conference. That's where the company laid out its ambitious vision for an "Articulated Naturality Web," which promises to take the concept of augmented reality to a whole new level. Described as a "complete renaissance in the way we approach technology," the system would let you check hotel room availability simply by looking at the outside of the hotel, try out different furniture in an empty office space, look at items from a museum before you go inside, and get a weather forecast just by looking at the sky, to name just a few possibilities. Ambitious to be sure, but is it actually attainable in the near future? We certainly hope so. Head on past the break for the video. [Thanks, Marius]
QPC lands $12 million Laser TV contract with Asia Optical
Watch out, Mitsubishi. Looks like you aren't the only game in town with Laser TV in the corporate word bank. Reportedly, California-based QPC Lasers has just landed a $12 million contract that will exclusively supply Asia Optical (AOCI) with the goods its needs to craft 60-inch laser-based sets -- kind of like the one it recently demonstrated in QPC's Los Angeles headquarters. To be totally honest, the terms of the deal are relatively vague, and while we can only assume that AOCI will be utilizing this tech in order to craft the HDTV of the future, we suppose it could use it for wicked cool microwave displays. OLEDs, Laser TVs and now SEDs (again)? Man, what are these poor LCDs to do with themselves?[Via OLED-Display]
