Just as 3-D printers catch on, the idea of 4-D printers is advanced. The fourth dimension is time — as in the space-time continuum described by the mathematician Hermann Minkowski early in the 20th century. Via Kalani Kirk Hausman
Imagine surfaces start to communicate with you. Your mobile gets goose skin when your lover texts you. Your WiFi controller changes the look and feel of it's surface according to different game situations. Your sofa gives you a short massage as a warm welcome when you return home from a hard day of work. Your laptop feels dried out when battery status is getting low.
.fluid is a concept study of an interacting, changing surface. While getting Input from the hands of its spectators, it's surface changes from liquid to solid, from plain to three-dimensional symmetric patterns. It provokes you to get in touch with it, to play with it's open interface and to collaborate with other people to find out how far you can push it.

Bientôt donc vous retrouverez quelque part avec des gens qui porteront ces lunettes. À tout moment, ceux-ci peuvent vous filmer à votre insu et mettre en ligne en temps réel la vidéo sur YouTube, non sans qu’un système automatisé de reconnaissance faciale et de tags vous ait peut-être identifié au passage ! Ce n’est plus de la science-fiction et comme Google n’est pas une entreprise philanthropique, on imagine sans peine l’impact majeur d’une telle innovation sur notre vie privée et le devenir de nos données personnelles.

Here’s a new take on the QR clock concept that uses an LCD display. The concept comes from the work [ch00f] put into his two versions of a QR clock (both of which used LED arrays). The time of day is encoded using the Quick Response Code standard. This version generates a new code each second which encapsulates date, hour, minute, and second information. Via QRious CODE, Vidos

See our work at the new exhibition dedicated to Belgian lawyer Henri La Fontaine, who won the Nobel peace price in 1913, at the Mundaneum, rue de Nimy, Mons. Based on the results of our Medianeum project, an interactive installation allows visitors to navigate in a timeline of Henri La Fontaine’s rich life. The system is based on Melon and TimelineJS.

What if your Ikea desk could assemble itself? Instead of printing out a full shape, the 4-D printer creates a strand of multiple materials--and that strand becomes whatever you want it to, based on synthetic proteins and amino acids that twist and move.

A research group lead by Professor Tachi at Keio University in Japan is currently working on one of the first incarnations of an avatar that incorporates some pretty cool virtual robotics technology. By slipping on a pair of virtual reality gloves and a helmet, you would be able to control and see the world through your avatar’s eyes. The concept behind this virtual robotics technology is really called Telexistence, and it allows us to control a real avatar robot. Via Szabolcs Kósa

A step up from remote controlled robots doing dangerous jobs, saving potential lives. This could allow for more dextrous and accurate controls without the remote-control middleman and instead with direct input.
If these were to make it into society then it could vastly change the structure of things, with work being done without even leaving the home.

This particular website gives information on the creation of avatar/robots that humans will be able to control. This will change the future, technology will allow humans to create there own avatar in the form of a robot, allowing humans to stay home whilst there avatar/robot goes out to do there daily needs or to even do there jobs at a single touch of a button, this technology will vastly change how the world works and runs.

Technology such as this which provides an avatar that can be operated remotely has infinite potential to make the lives of countless people easyer such robots provide an "out of body" experience and when perfected can enable working remotly and remotly carrying out daily chores. With strides like this technology is taking remarkable strides into how we are shaping our future.
