Today, for example, there's no need to move computer files across a monitor the size of a wall, but there might be 10 years from now. And in the future, people might want to wear a camera that records every waking moment for instant playback -- call it "TiVo for life."
Last week, Microsoft hosted an open house at its Mountain View, Calif., campus to show off some of these new technologies being developed by research teams.
None of the technologies is ready for prime time. Some need much more work, and others seem to be creating a solution for a problem that doesn't yet exist.
