Office Gadgets from the Future
Every year brings more and more technological advancements. As these advancements are made, manufacturers get increasingly more creative and are constantly developing innovative and unique gadgets for the office setting. Some of these devices appear to be very helpful, while others veer on the side of the strange and bizarre. But as further advancements in technology are made we can only assume that office gadgets will only get smarter, stranger and increasingly more innovative.
#1: Keyboard/Monitor Combination
Eee PC has created a keyboard with a computer monitor. This handy device works just like a regular keyboard. However, it has a built-in computer monitor on the right hand side. You can run document and messenger programs and check email on the keyboard monitor even when not plugged in to your computer.
This gadget will allow people in an office to take their keyboards to meetings in-house. They can then take notes and share files while in these meetings. This cuts down on passing around paper and allows workers to work from other places within the office away from their desks.
#2: The Thinking Desk
Be afraid! Very afraid – Your desk is watching you! Imagine a desk so sophisticated that it can actually read and catalogue memos or any written documents placed upon it. It can even remember and record ‘doodles’ you make on ‘Post It Notes’ and can read and reveal the temperature of your body or of your cup of coffee. 
You no longer have to imagine it. This unique desk will store every shred of information it comes into contact with. This includes when other people are snooping around your computer or desk when you aren’t present. Additionally, it can communicate with other machines in the office. You can place items on the desk and they will instantly be faxed. You can also use it to act as copying machine.
#3: 3D Hologram Desktop
Manufacturers are on the verge of launching a new desktop computer screen that actually is the same size as a piece of paper and just as thin. You can place this on a desk and plug your hard drive into it. The computer monitor will now be replaced with a hologram interpretation of everything that would appear on a regular desktop screen. This hologram monitor is expected to replace all regular desktop and flat screen computer monitors in the future. They are light weight and cost little to manufacture.
However, these 3D Hologram desktop monitors are still in the experimental phase and the creators have a great deal of kinks to work out. Still, it is expected that these unique monitors will be released in the next five to ten years.
The Cost Of The Future
Contrary to popular belief the cost of future office gadgets will actually decrease. As advancements in technology are made, so are advancements in manufacturing technology. This will cut back on production costs and will provide savings for corporations and for general consumers who invest in the purchase of these office gadgets.
