Future of Mobile Search: Virtual Shopping #1
I’m pretty sure companies like Ikea would quickly start to use this device this way if it became really available.

Future of Mobile Search- Search Beyond Time
This is the fifth post about this gadget.
Getting data of a weather forecast, maybe this might be possible.
When you wonder what the scene you’re looking at was like in the past, you can see it.
This might be off-topic, but it would be nice if it could work in sync with Google Maps like this.

Future of Mobile Search for Diet
Mainly because I don’t usually care about nutrition when I eat, this kind of function would be helpful for people like me.

Look at What You Don’t See Through Glass
Here are some more examples of how you might be able to use the device I introduced before.
(“Future of Internet Search: Mobile version” and “Future of Mobile Internet Search: Applications“.)
You can even see flowers that are not actually blooming.
There are a lot more ideas drawn in my Moleskine, so I’ll introduce them later.

Future of Mobile Internet Search: Applications
I think the following ideas should enhance the functionality of the device I introduced. Many applications like these will be developed that have never been possible.
Indoor guide
Works in a building, airport, station, hospital, etc.
Automatic simultaneous translation
Search keyword
Helpful when you want to find out a word from a lot of text

Future of Internet Search: Mobile version
(Followed by a previous post “Future of Internet Search“)
This is what I wish the internet search will be able to do with a mobile device in the NEAR future. Touch screen, built in camera, scanner, WiFi, google map (hopefully google earth), google search, image search… all in one device. Like this way, when you can see a building through it, it gives you the image search result right on the spot.
Choose a building and touch a floor and it tells you more details of the building.
Well, it doesn’t have to be a building, but it can be any object you see. You can use it when you want to know a car model, an insect name, what kind of food is served at a restaurant and how much, who built a bridge, etc. etc. But as a designer myself, I hope it’s able to tell me a name of a font of the type I see, the size, color (in RGB), and so on.
It’s got a scanner built in, so you can use it this way when you want to check the meaning of a word in the newspaper, book, magazine, etc.
It would be much easier to read a real book. You can use the dictionary, wikipedia, thesaurus and anything else available on the web. What do you think?
I won the red dot design concept award for this.

Ultra thin display
Accustomed to Google search so much, I sometimes look for “a search button” even when I read a real newspaper looking for a specific word. So it would be nice if there is a device like this to quickly find and highlight the word you specify. It would be even better if it can tell you the meaning of a word you don’t know. It’s so light and thin that you wouldn’t mind carrying it around at all. Oh, if there is a keyboard that can attach the screen to it, it’d be really good if it works as a computer.
Pubic billboards and spaces are so much filled with information that it takes you time to find what you really want. With this transparent sheet, only you can see the info you want on various places like walls, floors, ceilings, notice boards, etc. In a large building with many people coming for the first time, such as hospitals, this sheet could be handed to a visitor (especially a senior) as a guide. This way, what you see and how you see it can be customized.
