The concept of transforming internet into a sixth human sense sounds very fresh and innovative, which is something most of us have never thought of. The device that can allow the users to project information onto any surface is shown and demonstrated in the video. Personally, I am shocked more than fascinated by it.
This device makes everyone stupid and leads to the absence of privacy. We do not need to get to know people; we just need to look at them and their information will be revealed. We can do whatever we want in the public. Others can tell what you are doing by looking at the surface you are using.
Nevertheless, if we apply this to healthcare communication, this device possibly helps a lot. Healthcare professionals will not be fooled even if their patients are not honest about their health condition. When patients come to healthcare professionals, sometimes they do not know how to explain, meanwhile sometimes they do not want to tell others. This device can definitely enhance the healthcare communication. People do not even have to talk, but the information is shown clearly.
Sounds amazing? or scary?
So what are the communications issues involved in anytime/anywhere information? How to control the information? How to give "permission?" How to define ethical use?
