Multiple-Display Software Follows Your Gaze To Keep You Focused

These days, multiple monitors are becoming the norm instead of the exception. And with most interfaces designed to capture your attention — everywhere and at all costs — the constant barrage of blinking windows, beeping notifications and bouncing icons can be distracting if not entirely overwhelming. New Windows software, Diff Displays, wants to fix this by making sure you’re focused on the information you need and nothing else.


JVC Finds A Clever Shortcut To An 8K Projector

Given 4K TVs and cameras are only just starting to hit the market, there’s not a lot of 8K components to be had just yet. But that isn’t stopping JVC from rolling out one of the first 8K projectors that’s actually built on 4K technology.


Panasonic To Cut TV Production, Maybe Abandon Plasma

Philips’ New TV Is A Giant Sheet Of Glass That Leans Against The Wall

Forget mounting your huge television on the wall. That’s so common. Philips’ new DesignLine TVs just lean casually, like the Fonz waiting for a date. Ayyyyyy.


Battle The Cold And Smudges With A Screen-Cleaning Blanket

For most people, ‘whatever’s in reach’ usually ends up being the best way to clean their phone or tablet’s screen.

The Miracle Bendy Displays Of The Future Are Still Years Away

The frustration with devices like a hypothetical iWatch — or a completely imaginary roll-up tablet (maybe a Vaio or something?) — is that they’re made up of parts, and sometimes those parts don’t exist quite yet. Or, in the case of Corning’s brilliantly flexible Willow glass, they exist, but no one knows quite how to use them yet.


Check Out The Whole History Of Display Resolutions In One Big Stack

Computer screens have come a long, long way in the past decade and a half. With all these retina-grade, impossible-to-decern-the-pixels resolutions floating around, it’s hard to believe we used to deal with displays as low as 640×480 back in the day. This is what all that resolution evolution looks like all in one place.


Tiny Screen-Cleaning Roomba-Like Robot Redefines Overkill

We all hate it when screens are covered in greasy fingerprints, but it’s nothing a shirt sleeve or microfibre cloth can’t fix. What the world doesn’t need is a tiny Roomba-like cleaning device designed specifically for cleaning fingerprints.


Interactive 72,000 LED Display Is What Every Kid Needs

This is wonderful. Jason Bruges Studio created an interactive installation that can react to touch and reveal digital animals inside a children’s hospital. There are 70 LED panels with 72,000 LEDs hidden behind the wallpaper of the rainforest. When started, the wall makes it seem as if animals are travelling through the forest.
