DEAR READER, I extend a humble apology. I do no original thinking. No cunning calculations. My primary interest is to join the dots, and make sometimes unusual connections between glittering emerging trends. There are many thousands of brilliantly creative and productive minds generating the primary data, but not yours truly. I am a humble secondary synthesizer. View in LinkedIn

VIRTUAL REALITY WITH RATS (2012). "The research enables the rat to interact with a rat-sized robot controlled by a human participant in a different location. At the same time, the human participant (who is in a virtual environment) interacts with a human-sized avatar that is controlled by the movements of the distant rat. The authors hope the new technology will be used to study animal behaviour in a completely new way." ( No shit!)" " http://lnkd.in/b6hkjPK View in LinkedIn

NEW BEAMING TECHNOLOGY. "Putting all this together -- the rat interacted with a rat sized robot that represented the remotely located human, and the human interacted with a human sized avatar that represented the remotely located rat.""

BEAMING as new VR state. "The researchers define ‘beaming’ as digitally transporting a representation of yourself to a distant place, where you can interact with the people there as if you were there. This is achieved through a combination of virtual reality and teleoperator systems. The visitor to the remote place (the destination) is represented there ideally by a physical robot.""

DEAR READER, now that I have sampled from the many deep and still waters, among obscure brooks, and found enough growing and changing floral forms that can fascinate me for decades, I will (slowly) transition to essay form to concentrate on these, with less postings (to the relief of some). Conclusion: at least a dozen or so of the most fertile areas that are emerging will be of great importance in our lifetimes. Thank you all for being my guides, in so many ways View in LinkedIn

BEAMING IS A DOUBLE SELF: "is the process of instantaneously transporting people (visitors) from one physical place in the world to another (the destination) so that they can interact with the local people there. This is achieved through shifting their means for perception into the destination, and decomposing their actions, physiological and even emotional state into a stream of data that is transferred across the internet.""

BEAMING a physical interactive other self: " The goal is to produce a new kind of virtual transportation, where the person can be physically embodied interacting with life-sized people who may be thousands of kilometres away."" " http://lnkd.in/bHpaub3 View in LinkedIn

"Teleportation is an important future technology in the field of quantum information processing... it may be possible to transmit information from one location to another one in a future quantum device or processor. Compared to today's information and communication technologies, which are based on classical physics, quantum information processing has the advantage that the information density is much higher: In quantum bits more information can be stored and more efficiently processed than in classical bits.""

EU IS BEHIND IT WITH CASH "The EU Commission’s Community Research and Development Information Service (CORDIS) wants to (develop) a system called “beaming.” When fully developed, it should reportedly provide telepresence so real that for the operator and the people at the other end, it will be like the person is actually there.""
