Default Samsungs new touch screen goes Minority Report

Samsung is demoing a mind-blowing transparent glass touchscreen display here at CES and we couldn't be more excited.

The Samsung Transparent Smart Window is, as the name suggests, totally see through but with a simple caress of its touchscreen display it springs to life and overlays widgets, websites and media over your view.

The current iteration of tech can produce displays up to 46in with a 1366x768 resolution, which we expect to increase with time. We're particularly impressed by the virtual blind function, which blacks out the window venetian blinds-style.

People concerned over privacy shouldn't fret either, as it acts like a two-way mirror – you can see out, but nosy neighbours can't see in.

Who needs double glazing when you can kit out your abode with these glorious slabs of future-tech? Not us, that's for sure…

Story @ Stuff.tv

So when the video first starts the impression I got was that it was just a touch screen tv showing a cartoon like scene of buildings and trees in the back ground. That actually appears to be a model town which is placed behind the screen for demo purposes.

looks good.

back in 1989, Raychem showed me an LCD window that could switch between 'clear' and opaque black, and could be printed. i wonder what happened to their version of the technology. They were using it as an architectural material in their office, for example to convert a conference room window from clear to can't-see-nothin.
