The doctor table is exactly what Microsoft Surface is. I worked on the set of "The Island" to work with advertisers who were using product placement to make their products look "futuristic". Microsoft was one of our bigger advertisers. Microsoft had the table brought in, and although it doesn't look exactly like the one we see, it was still based on the same technology. And even then, we really were impressed with what they had right there. So it really isn't a surprise that they're similiar. Man this thing is awesome. Rock on. This is the future as we know it.
“An engineer explained to us that hundreds of ear impressions were gathered in the name of research, and while each one obviously boasted its own unique shape and size, one single characteristic remained uniform across the board: the entrance into the ear canal is not a perfect circle, it's an oval.”
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
It looks exactly like the doctor's table in the film "The Island". Pretty incredible, I like it.
