Light Blue Optic's Light Touch - A taste of the future

You may have seen the laser computers used in some big movies that are set in the future where they use a projected computer screen with the touch of a finger, and if you're like us, you will have thought 'wow, can't wait for those to become a reality'. Well now, brace yourselves, they are!

A company called LBO (Light Blue Optic) has created such a gadget using a laser based pico projector with an infrared sensor which together beams a touch sensitive display on to any flat surface. The gadget is small and looks almost like a pocket camcorder (see below). It also comes with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connections and 2GB storage which can be expanded to 32GB with a microSD card.
