By popular request, I’ve added a hackit category. Today’s hackit is one of my coffee shop creations. Considering the quality of work we’ve seen, I can’t help but wonder… If the Hack-A-Day community were to come together and produce a joint collaborative hardware project, what could it build? A modular robotics platform? A digital I/O platform for other projects? If you could harness the power of thousands of hardware hacking geeks, what would you ask them to do?
Got a better idea? Let’s hear it.
How about this, instead of thinking somewhat in the box as to what would be easy to concept the construction of, Think about the movie “paycheck”, when the guy thar sells his intelect and looses his memory afterwards builds the holographic monitor, well lack of monitor in that case, but if you think about it that would be a VERY possible thing, Combining the skills of hackers ANYWHERE, combine their knowledge of different OS/Computer components, then add the side dish of their “outside the box” thinking, the Holografic projecter comes in at a VERY possible angle. I mean think about it, You get a cilindrical computer setup, think hexigon, make it like a dog bowl, so that it dips in on the inside at set angles, you set all of the needed computer hardware on the inside, add some usb ports, if you wanted oldschool some Ps2 ports, A BAD ASS Nvidia Graphix card (Yes that may have to be modified to fit the peramiters of the hologram), then, because we are making it, some LED’s around the base just for some flash, (gotta have style with intellectual design). Now for the inner bowl, you set up mirrors, or some type of reflective Anything in the middle at the right angles, you set up lasers just like the ones in a TV at the right spots, and you set up the peramiters for the lasers I.E. the strength of the lightflow, the colors, the basics, the right way, set either a convex plane of glass over top, (or crystal), and BAM you have yourself one of the first Holographic computers in history, not only have you breached the lines into a new Era of technology, but think of the other advances that would come shortly after that.
You would get an amazing upgrade in the medical world, the monitors would not only be able to show WHAT is wrong with the person and WHERE but you would get that added sence of not having to use only the computer to measure the issue, see what was around the problems, the works.
Our militairy capabilities would be completely reworked, enhanced landscaping for the battlefields, things like that.
Last but not least, you would be breaking the water to a WHOLE new type of gaming, Can I hear anyone say virtual reality, not in the sence of a headset and confined area… in the sence of a ROOM with your own virtual world, with the right adjustments and advances of course.
I just want to hear what you think of all that I have said, if anyone will be reading this.
I am eagerly waiting to hear from you.
Instead of waiting for confirmation that you saw this by coming back to this site constantly, post your comments on this here, but also send some to my email address.

Hope to hear from you all.

This guy above me has way too much imagination.
i like that.
Thats what the world needs, really, dreams can become reality if you work hard to make them true.
I would help you, but im just a web developer and programer.
if anything needed halla at yo boy

Another cool article!! u r so cool!!
Since quite a few handheld devices now have very useable graphic displays on then, how about a device with a graphical display, using a smart-card to configure it? That way you could use it as an oscilloscope, logic analyser, etc. just by slipping in the apropriate card.
