New Advance Technology

Just finished viewing some articles in my favourite website http://www.physorg.com.

One of the article that I found pretty cool was an article about touchable hologram. I am pretty sure that everyone know what hologram is. Well in this touchable hologram, you can feel the hologram with your bare hand. This hologram projector uses an ultrasound phenomenon called acoustic radiation pressure in order to create pressure sensation on user's hand.

I wonder how fast will this technology develop? I read the comments about this article and unsurprisingly, many of them think that it will be good if this technology can be use for gaming purposes. You can fight any martial artist or experience the true terror of war by using this technology. The question now is only when.

If we take a glance back at history, in 1920, a television only have black and white colour but only 50 years later, it has advance from two colours to multiple colours and also can be used for broadcasting. In history if hologram, the first hologram ever recorded 3D objects were made in 1962 but only about 45 years later, it has advance to a higher level despite of the war that happen during that time.

I just hope that this type of technology will be used for the betterment of human. We can use this type of technology for learning purposes especially in learning some dangerous experiment. Just as reminder, human is always the one to blame, because human create something and it is also human who try to manipulate their creation. I think that is all for this short post. Thanks for reading.
