After the “Increased”, the “Synthetic Reality”!
In fact, the correct term would be “Programmable Materials” or “Claytrons”, which represents an emerging engineering area that studies the possibilities of using nanobots (in this case the “Claytronic” or “Catoms”) and which are used to create mechanisms or larger-scale machines. This “Programmable Materials” has the ability to communicate with each other, with computers, change colors and connect with each other by creating different forms. These forms allow, theoretically, to model any object, including human replicas that can be used in virtual meetings.
The “Claytrons” or “Catoms” began to be developed by the University of Carnegie Mellon’s, with Intel and DARPA funds. Nothing less than the world's largest semiconductor manufacturer who, using PCs or MAC, is almost certainly the computer processor supplier of your PC and an investigative agency of the Ministry of Defense that was only the main responsible for creating the... Internet.
Although the video still does not present a real Demo, it represents a possible Demo in the near future.
When you think you've seen everything and there's not much more to invent, believe me, you're wrong!
