Gadgets to look forward in 2014 https://techadvise.webs.com/apps/photos/ Gadgets to look forward in 2014 Foc.us headset If you like the idea of augmenting your reality, then how about improving your mental faculties too? That?s the premise of this headset that hopes to hasten gamers? reaction times. It uses an existing technology known as ?transcranial direct current stimulation?, which passes a low-level electrical current (don?t worry, you won?t feel it) through your brain. Think of it as your brain cells getting a massage. In the lab this treatment does improve performance on very simple tests ? like picking out a circle in a group of squares, but there are doubts as to whether this effect would extend to a highly complex video game. That said, if the foc.us headset does work, it would be one of the first gadgets on sale to actually augment human ability. https://techadvise.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=187331514 187331514 TAT TAT technology powers 470 million devices.

One where objects both real and virtual interact seamlessly? That?s precisely what new start-up company Meta wants to offer. Just like Tony Stark in Iron Man, the Meta SpaceGlasses present virtual objects in the real world and let you interact with them, helping you sculpt a virtual vase with your hands, for example. From there you can 'carry' it over to your 3D printer where it?ll be printed, giving you a physical version of your digital model. It sounds like science fiction but, as Meta has already demonstrated, all the vital ingredients to make these specs already exist. A Kinect sensor and processor mounted on top of the frame detects objects in the real world, like your hands or sheets of paper, and then tracks their location and distance from you. Meanwhile, tiny projectors mounted on the arms of the SpaceGlasses throw virtual images onto the lens. Watch their video here for a demonstration of how it works. It may sound like a pipe dream but Meta hopes to have people wearing their unusual spectacles by 2014. Watch out Google Glass. https://techadvise.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=187331517 187331517 Playstation 4 The Playstation 4 (PS4) is expected to be released by Christmas of 2013 and be available to the public by 2014.
