Hi, Please watch this wonderful video, its a follow up of a day made of Glass, which i have posted earlier in my blog.

It talks about highly engineered glass combined with companion technology. There would be applications that transfer between personal tablets and large screens or displays.
In the future even the sustainable resources will be able to be used efficiently with the help of the future touch technology. For example the unsightly solar panels used now will be replaced with low-cost high efficiency, photovoltaic cells used in roofs. This will also be an attractive architectural feature.
There will be a large-scale, seamless, durable, multi touch glass that communicates. The same technology exists today in smaller tables and displays, but it will be developed on a large scale in the future.
I loved the concept of an "All Glass Room," where the walls are made of glass and can become active displays when required to figure different situations. This will make it easier to share and collaborate. Even in the field of retail i feel this will be a very effective store. The walls can be updated with new products and merchandise, things can be shared directly, the walls can act as mirrors when required, become opaque when needed, also purchasing can be done just by gesturing or waving your card. Some part of this exists even today but again on a very small scale.
Glass with special needs will also be developed, like a special glass that inhibits the growth of micro-organisms. This could be used in eating joints as tables, in health clubs and hospitals.
For all this a lot of bandwidth is needed, especially for so much data projection. But as they have mentioned in the video, glass optical fibers can be used for this purpose and designed for the requirements.
They have also mentioned a large-scale, durable information wall made of glass. This could be used to create barriers, its informative, interactive, aesthetically attractive, doesn't block landscapes and is made of glass. In the field of retail i feel this could be a very effective device to advertise and market products or it could also be used for branding. Again it can be worked with personal tablets and can be updated easily. This could be combined with augmented reality to enhance the information provided and to link it to other related content.
Please watch the video and enjoy:)
