Hiroshi Ishiguro’s android mannequin creeps out Japanese shoppers (video)

If you didn’t think mannequins were creepy enough already, maybe this will change your mind. In an attempt to lure shoppers, Japanese department store Takashimiya installed an eerily lifelike interactive robot for its Valentine’s window display.

MicroOLED viewfinder delivers 5.4 megapixels in 0.61-inch monochrome display

Photographers who’ve spent years looking through the window of a high-end optical viewfinder may never find an electronic version that fully satisfies them. But this new MicroOLED EVF may get us closer than ever to an acceptable digital replacement for the TTL OVF, which will never find a home in modern-day compacts and mirrorless ILCs. Developed with military and medical-industry heads-up displays and digital camera viewfinders in mind, the new microdispay is able to deliver a 5.4 megapixel (2560 x 2048) monochrome image, or 1.3 megapixels in full 16-million color — all in a 0.61-inch diagonal panel

Audi combines HUD with gesture controls, leaves us wanting

Audi is back at CES for the second year in a row, complete with a retina-searing, biggie-sized booth, its next-gen Audi Command interface and a prototype heads-up display that combines three displays with gesture controls.

Samsung Series 9 monitor and all-in-one eyes-on

After spotting a powered-off Series 9 display at a CES press event earlier this week, we told you we’d revisit it if we could actually show you that 27-inch, 2560 x 1440 panel in all its billion-color glory. Well, folks, here she is. Samsung’s first PLS display for the consumer market is arriving in March or April for $1,199, and is arriving with a refreshed design that trades last year’s slick surfaces for an aluminum base

2013 Dodge Dart digital dash display hands-on (video)

Sure, we’ve seen digital instrument panels before, but the one outfitted for the upcoming Dodge Dart re-birth caught our eye. Instead of a regular ol’ speedometer in the center of the driver side dash, you’ll encounter a 7-inch instrument cluster that you’ll be able to customize based on your specific auto info needs. This of course will be the second screen on the dash, as the vehicle will also feature Chrysler’s 8.4-inch Uconnect infotainment system in the center

Vuzix augmented reality Smart Glasses prototype hands-on (video)

Remember those wicked holographic augmented reality glasses that DARPA was so hot to build? They’re almost here. Hiding out at Vuzix’s CES booth we found a functional prototype for its Smart Glasses industrial class monocular display — a special lens attached to a proprietary display driver that produces a bright, 1.4mm holographic picture for one of your peepers

Motorola MOTOLUXE hands-on (video)

The Motorola MOTOLUXE — born the XT615 in China — was on hand at Moto’s booth so we took the opportunity to check it out. While the feature set might not be world beating, or even attempt to come close, we expect the price will move people in its favor
