Twenty-four prominent thinkers will present topics with profound implications about the course of our lives, and humanity's near- and long-term future. Several presenters will focus on the domains of nanotechnology and artificial intelligence - two rapidly growing technologies expected to be critically important in the twenty-first century. http://nanotech-now.com/ACC2003-announcement4.htm Forbes Table: The 25 Fastest-Growing Tech Companies July, 4, 03 http://www.forbes.com/2003/04/07/0407fasttechtable.html Gurus of Tomorrow's Tech Technology Special Report BusinessWeek Monday, January 7, 2002 http://www.businessweek.com/technology/tc_special/guru.htm Gurus of Technology Technology Special Report BusinessWeek Tuesday, April 1, 2003 http://www.europe.businessweek.com/technology/tc_special/03gurus.htm Global Tech Gurus TIME July 7, 2003 http://www.time.com/time/europe/digital/2003/gurus/ Future Tech: 20 Hot Technologies to Watch PC Magazine July 1, 2003 http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,4149,1130591,00.asp ******************************* ******************** PRECEPCION E INTERFACES EMERGENTES FogScreen is a break-through technology, literally! FogScreen is a novel and intriguing method for forming a superior quality physically penetrable dry fog display, a fog screen. The key features are that the screen is flat and thin, enabling high-quality projections, and walk-thru is possible. The FogScreen feels like nothing and does not make things wet. It creates a magical effect as if the images are floating in thin air. http://www.fogscreen.com/ INTERFACES EMERGENTES Sharp prevé lanzar en Japón computadoras con pantallas 3-D La compañía Sharp lanzará al mercado el próximo mes en Japón y Estados Unidos computadoras portátiles que muestran imágenes en tres dimensiones, anunció la empresa.

Koprowski TechNewsWorld September 10, 2003 Researchers at SUNY Buffalo have completed experiments in which they were able to transmit, from one person to another over the Internet, the sensation of touching a hard or soft object. "As far as we know, our technology is the only way a person can communicate with another person the sense of touch he feels when he does something," said Thenkurussi Kesavadas, director of the virtual reality lab at SUNY Buffalo. http://www.technewsworld.com/perl/story/31534.html EurekAlert 11-Sep-2003 Contact: Bill Haduch bhaduch@ur.rutgers.edu 732-932-7084 Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey Say goodbye to your mouse, keyboard and phone number - voice control is finally taking over http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2003-09/rtsu-sgt090803.php Mixed and Augmented Reality REALIDADAUMENTADA Y MESCLADA Welcome to the Augmented Reality Homepage This page provides a "portal" to the world wide web of "Augmented Reality" (AR).
