If you're worried about a dystopian future where the view from your window is obscured by zombies, rubble piles and the occasional group of bandits, then you'll want to invest in Samsung's new transparent Smart Window-a computer screen/window that can make the world outside look like anything you want, even the terrifying real world, if that's how you get your kicks.
You can make it look like still photos, video footage, a computer desktop, even television, if you prefer to imagine a sitcom taking place outside your window over an otherwise bleak reality. It's large, shiny, and eliminates the need to actually go outside, so what's not to like?

Very cool. Minority Report, for sure. Also made me think of Iron Man with the weather display window in Tony Stark's bedroom.

While transparent screens look cool in movies like Avatar, in reality I think having the image getting confused by a background scene would get annoying pretty fast.

I remember this from Total Recall (1990)!

Now is it lit or does it depend on the outside light? If so, then I will wait for a newer model
