FRAUNHOFER 3D SCREENS The institute responsible for the MP3 format has moved on to the third dimension, bringing a plethora of 3D hardware including this incredible screen which displays a 3D image without the need for special glasses. A camera at the top tracks the position of your eyes to create the effect. VIRTUAL ENGINEERING Siemens shows off more 3D hardware, which as well as providing a heads up display of what you are looking at, actually recognises the component in view, then displays information on it to the headset display. Audi also has shown some recognition devices to help their engineers look like cyber-cyclists too. FLIP AND CLICK New mobiles of all shapes and sizes competed for attention at Cebit. The hall was buzzing with talk of new picture phones, 3G handsets and data phones. This cameraphone from the people behind Japan's i-Mode service, NTT DoCoMO, comes with a snazzy twist-flippable display.
