The disappearing coat is part space-age material, part camera trick. A video camera behind the coat sends footage to a projector, which bounces the image off the front of coat's reflective surface much like a movie screen works. Dr. Susumu Tachi

Body
Could technology actually be doing harm on our eyes or is this just a myth? because my mom always said, do not sit to close to the telly, but if we look now, heaps of kids are always playing on the labtop, smartphones and ipads.

when we look to long to a screen we feel like the vision is ketting blurred, eyes become itchy, perception changes, eyes begin to burn, headaches, watering of the eyes, and focusing becomes hard.
there is done some research to this subject, According to Dr Blakeney, an optometric adviser to the College of Optometrists, computers will not permanently damage the eyes. the problems that you have when you look to long at your screen is because we don’t blink so much. the problem then only is dry eyes.
Mind
how contemporary technology influenced our mind, I think, only what i think, Is that technology has a huge effect to our brains when we are young, we get smarter bij using it because its a normal thing, when your little you lurn stuff from everbody, you pick up things very fast, if we look now to little kids playing al those games also very educative games they became very smart because of this, they lurn thing earlier that before. if we ask a guy of the age of 60 most of them don’t know how facebook work, but facebook is one of the most simple things i guess.
behavior
I realy think technology has a quite bad influence on the behavior of people, and i mean by technology the smartphone, people get more self-contained because of fb, twitter, whatsapp, games and al those things, people dont want to be alone, or dont want te be seen alone on the steets so they keep looking at there phone. when your looking for a place somewhere in a other city loads of people look at there phone to now the direction, where is the time that you can ask random people on the streets where you need to go. If I look a myself in this situation, i like to talk to random people so I would love to ask the way to someone, but there is nobody to ask to because all the other people are looking at there phones and i would feel like if i interupt there whatsapp conversation.
