Enso Beta Products. MIT Creates Amazing UI From Levitating Orbs. Anyone else see The Avengers? Just like in Iron Man 1 and 2, Tony Stark has the coolest interactive 3-D displays. He can pull a digital wire frame out of a set of blueprints or wrap an exoskeleton around his arm. Those moments aren’t just sci-fi fun; they’re full of visionary ideas to explore and manipulate objects in 3-D space. Except for one thing: How would Stark feel all of these objects to move them around? In reality, he’d be touching nothing but air. Jinha Lee, from the Tangible Media Group of the MIT Media Lab, in collaboration with Rehmi Post and Hiroshi Ishii, has been playing with the idea of manipulating real floating objects in 3-D space to create a truly tactile user interface.

His prototype is called the ZeroN, and it will drop your jaw when you see it working for the first (and second and third) time. It’s essentially a small field in which gravity doesn’t overcome an object. Interviewing Lee, I realized he’s one-part scientist, one-part philosopher. [Hat tip: designboom] Yast.
