iDesk Concept, Provides A Glimpse Of A Future Workspace.

 

Adam Benton, the designer of this iDesk concept explains how it works: "The desk could sync with your Mac or potentially have a Mac built in, perhaps with a portion of the desk’s surface angled upward to serve as a display. Tactile keyboards could likewise be replaced by a digital touch-sensitive version (endlessly configurable to your preferences for individual apps), and any part of the desk’s surface could be cordoned off as a trackpad area. Files could be transferred easily between Macs, iPhones, iPads, and so on by sitting the devices on the desk and swiping file icons across its surface from one device to the other.”

 

Thanks to Deloste for the great pick!

However, Colorado-based Orbotix has taken that maxim and turned it on its head, outfitting a mini plastic ball with enough accelerometer-based power that a turn and dip of your smartphone will send it zooming around the floor in wild yet controlled patterns.
