Iris: A True Tablet PC for Anyone

Well, the world is certainly growing faster int terms of technology. Even as we speak, companies are developing their products in order to dominate the techno world.

The most famous tablet PC in the world, IPad.
Few years back, the late Steve Jobs introduced Ipad to the whole world which renders almost all companies to try inventing a tablet PC. And among the new inventions and design, a new tablet PC designed by four designers, Liu-Wei, Yao Kai-Chi, Hong Ruei-Hong & Cheng Ya-Fang, will definitely have chance in dominating the tablet PC market.

What they've designed is a transparent tablet PC, in which they called Iris. This tablet PC is using OLED screen and a transparent body, allowing the user to see through the tablet like seeing through a transparent glass. This is how Iris looks like:



Like other tablet PC, this tablet is equipped with speaker, camera and also tiny scanner. By activating the camera, according to gajitz, "this tablet can make a variety of augmented reality applications possible." Well, let's just see what this tiny thing can do that makes IPad sucks.


Well, if you want to have a mobile map that will show you where to go, definitely Iris is better. You can view the real life street with direction of where you're going. This helps especially if you're a tourist or new to some place that you've never been before.

Iris helps you in organizing your place. You can rearrange anything in Iris until you satisfied before you start arranging stuff only to find out that you don't like the arrangement.

With the help of scanner, Iris can translate whatever you're reading into your desired language. You just need to put Iris on a book, the scanner will process the words and boom, the translated text appears!

Also equipped with a sliding bar, Iris can separate the screen to allow you to do multiple works at the same time. Or if you want to share your screen with someone, just put the sliding bar in the middle and you can open different applications at the same time.

Imagine how many useful applications can be associated with Iris for example, VeinViewer. Or maybe at last, we'll have X-Ray scan just by using Iris. Well, I sincerely hope that they've already working on it because I'm gonna need one.
