In Pictures: Research Lab Projects And Future Tech
By
Modeling-Clay Display

Researchers at Bristol University in the U.K. have been granted 2.47 million euros ($3.35 million) in funding from the European Union for their work on malleable displays. Named GHOSTs (Generic and Highly Organic, Shape-changing inTerfaces), the screens can adopt and maintain any shape. Touching them allows you to interact with the connected system and send commands. This research will advance the understanding of organic materials used in computer imaging and the challenges inherent in this type of interface.

    Do all scientists and professors use old PCs ? At the " A Self-Replicating Printer " and " Remote-Control Bionic Arm" page, you can clearly see the old fat monitors and classic white keyboards.

    there should have been atleast a mention about how researchers finally managed to stop light(no small feat since it was believed impossible prior to this) which opens the door to lightsaber creation in future
