New technology for TVs will allow users to ‘pull’ images … – Globo.com

A survey conducted by various European university wants to take the evolution of displays to a new level, with a larger amount of pixels or decrease in thickness. The Ghost, as is being called the project, wants to make the screens adaptable to the user gesture, and they would have the forms and adapt as touch.

Five Ways ‘easy’ to watch subtitled movies in
TV

The Ghost project uses a technology known as ultrasonic levitation to shape as the touch. The idea for creating the project came to give real 3D shapes to images, a function that is not possible with the screens we know today.

The technology is still in the search field and has not forecast-to-market, but there are a number of possible applications in which it could be used, such as digital maps which would be physically possible to show the relief of nuances, for example. The technology could also be used to create a body in 3D and be operated by a doctor in training.

The researchers created a number of prototypes to demonstrate the ability of the Ghost project. One is the Emerge, an interactive three-dimensional graphic that changes as interaction with the software or by the user’s touch.

Among the institutions involved are the University of Bristol, UK and the University of Eindhoven, the Netherlands. The project has been in development since 2013, and researchers estimate that must be at least another 10 years so that the Ghost project comes at an advanced stage. One of the challenges is to adapt the technology for use in smaller devices like smartphones and tablets.
