“He who controls the past, commands the future. He who commands the future, conquers the past. ”

Under the cut - a review of videos with a vision of the future from Intel, Microsoft, Google, Citrix.

Citrix

Citrix is ​​seriously thinking about the future of the workplace. They want to turn any space into working space. At any time. The workplace ceases to be physical, and becomes 100% software / software. With a bet on "Flexibility", "Security", "Mobility", "Personalization".

In the video, Citrix drew the future, where they “connect ideas and people”: the seamlessness of the workplace - work at home at least, even in nature. Augmented reality allows you to collaborate on projects faster.




Health technologies will become more mobile, automated, patient health data, images and ultrasounds can be shown simultaneously to several doctors and nurses in different places - at any time and from any device.

Intel

Intel "knows the future because it builds it."

A series of emotional and funny videos, where one of the characters is a guy named “Future”. He in every way mischief: sticks to the passengers of the train, digs up to the sellers of underwear, allows doctors to look into his ear / brain.

Microsoft

Superidea - window-display-teleport - allows you to communicate with another part of the world as “through glass”. A lot of e-paper: a plane ticket, a newspaper like from Harry Potter. Even a mug and then wrapped in electronic paper and shows pictures.

Seamless working surfaces: throw the info from the display on the surface of the table or tablet with one swipe of your finger. Interactive work surfaces - you put coffee, you put the keys to the car - relevant information appears around the table. Glass and walls are also now in the service of business.

Cool concept of "split" and "spliced" devices.

A couple of serious lectures and a couple of jokes from Google

“There is no future. Earlier, in childhood, there was always something bright, unknown before. A life! And now I know for sure what will happen next - the same thing as today. I will do the same, go to restaurants the same, well, to the others the same. By car, drive about the same. Instead of the future, the present has become, simply, there is a present that is now, and a present that will come later. And the main thing is that I really like my present. The cars are good, the restaurants are delicious ... only, the future is pitiful ... "
