When does technology go too far?

As I posted in a previous blog, I love technology and what it has to offer. However, how far is too far?? When does "just because we can" cease to be the reason to invent something?

A group at MIT came up with a device that they are dubbing 'SixthSense'. It allows you to get more information about anything you look at and rather than requiring you to have a specific screen to use to see the information provided, any screen will work. It's crazy!

Click here to see the TED presentation and demo of this new piece of technology.

The genius behind this is Pranav Mistry.

Until next time...
