Well prepare to wait.
I wouldn't even wager when the things displayed would be commercially applicable, let alone consumer affordable. A small bet would be 30-40 years...

I don't think a lot of this is too far off though, look how much technology has changed over the past 10 years, or even 2 years.
I get your point, I think the main issue is programming and software related, as well as the high data usage this would create, then again, Corning is in the fiber optic business!

Awesome video, glad I found this. Although some things are more realistic than others, it really wouldn't be surprising to see some of these things in 40-50 years.

Well, fiber optic wires are made of glass lol.
I think the biggest issue is how in the hell do you integrate very high powered electronics into a sheet of glass? I mean, they imply it is literally IN the glass and unseen.
I'd go with 15 years as a best case minimum before we even read about this as experiments in science journals.

Personally I think Tony Stark does it better but it is a nice thought
Agreed. Tony start at least made some people mad with it... these people just smile. And i have to say that paper ereader was Too thin. I would want a sturdier alternative.
Beats me! haha Things like the glass tv, might be built into that wall somewhere? Corning makes the specialty glass, not the actual electronics. I think the video gives an idea of what possibilities can come from their glass, if and when the technology to integrate the electronics.
I don't think the company would spend the time to have this video made if they didn't believe this is the future (vision) for their products
