Video on Transparent Concrete
"The screen consists of concrete with embedded optical fibres, arranged as pixels, capable of transmitting natural as well as artificial light."

Morphovision
"In front of a physical 3D miniature house (placed in a glass box) is a touch screen that allows a user to select different visual effects. According to the user's selection, the house may become soft or even break apart. This all happens between your naked eyes and the miniature house - no special goggles or screens needed."

Smart Laser Scanner for Human-Computer Interface
"...allows users to input data by just executing bare-handed gestures in front of a portable device - that could then be embodied in a keyboardless wrist-watch."

3D Theater on a Table
"This device could be used for many different kinds of things besides the "3D theater" especially if it could be made larger (possibly as big as a computer displays or a building floor?) with hi-fidelity realistic images."

Electronic Rope
"...a high-tech rope that senses its own load and signals any weakness, sending the information to a handheld device well before it frays and gives way."

Fingernail Storage
"Japanese researchers are using femtosecond laser pulses to write data into human fingernails. Capacities are said to be up to 5 mega bits and the stored data lasts for 6 months - the time it takes a fingernail to be completely replaced."
