51. By “wearable computing” I mean mobile computing where
both computer-generated graphics and the real world are
seamlessly overlaid in your view; there is no separate display
that you hold in your hands (think Terminator vision). The
underlying trend as we’ve gone from desktops through
laptops and notebooks to tablets is one of having computing
available in more places, more of the time.
52. The logical endpoint is computing everywhere, all the time
– that is, wearable computing – and I have no doubt that 20
years from now that will be standard, probably through
glasses or contacts, but for all I know through some kind of
more direct neural connection.
53. And I’m pretty confident that platform shift will happen a
lot sooner than 20 years – almost certainly within 10, but
quite likely as little as 3-5, because the key areas – input,
3-5
processing/power/size, and output – that need to evolve to
enable wearable computing are shaping up nicely, although
there’s a lot still to be figured out.
66. Douglas Adams said...
1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is
normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the
way the world works.
2. Anything that’s invented between when you’re fifteen
and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary
and you can probably get a career in it.
3. Anything invented after you’re thirty-five is against the
natural order of things.
67. If I'd asked them
what they wanted,
they'd have said a
faster horse.
-- Henry Ford
68. It isn’t the consumer’s job
to know what they want.
- Steve Jobs
69. The best way to
predict the future
is to create it.
-Peter Drucker
