One day you could say "Hasta la vista, baby!" while zooming in on far-off scenes. Virtual displays could correct vision-impairment, drive holographic control panels and could be even a mean of navigating the Web. A team at the University of Washington could bring to reality this SF technology, operating at microscop... |
