Philips monitor sports ErgoSensor, cannot bear you slouching

It is said that one needs to have a decent posture whether you are walking or sitting down – I know that slouching feels a whole lot more comfortable, but somehow or rather, our bodies were created and designed in such a way that you not only look good sitting up with great posture, it is also good for your body as well. Philips knows this, and with so many of us being tethered to our computers for hours on end each day, it is interesting to note that they have taken the effort to make sure we do not slouch in front of our computer monitor, but rather, sit up like a 5-star general. This is made possible thanks to their latest monitor that is known as the ErgoSensor, where a sensor is placed where the webcam is located, and the ErgoSensor will ensure it keeps its eye on you whenever you work.

Glove-based CRTouch project turns old monitors into touchscreens

As anyone who’s ever played a game of Duck Hunt is aware, there are ways of directly interacting with CRT monitors that don’t require any modifications to the display itself (a la resistive overlays). A group of students from the University of Hasselt in Belgium have now taken that idea further than most, however, and developed a glove-based system that uses a pair of phototransistors in the fingertips to detect the electron beam as it makes its way across the screen. While not quite “multitouch,” the student’s current setup (dubbed CRTouch) does let them draw on the screen with one finger and call up additional options (like an eraser or color palette) with the second.
