Spotted by 9to5Mac, artist Guilherme M. Schasiepen has posted a gallery of concept iTV images. The images depict a multi-touch TV set with 3D that doesn’t require glasses.
Color us skeptical, but the idea of a touch-screen television seems absolutely unrealistic. This concept is still pretty gorgeous, however.
While the TV itself looks great (check out this awesome 360 degree pan), no one is going to want to walk up to their TV set and touch the screen to control it. Besides that aspect and the ambitious no-glasses 3D technology, we think this concept has some worth.
Here’s what Steve Jobs told Walter Isaacson about the future Apple TV:
‘I’d like to create an integrated television set that is completely easy to use,’ he told me. ‘It would be seamlessly synced with all of your devices and with iCloud.’ No longer would users have to fiddle with complex remotes for DVD players and cable channels. ‘It will have the simplest user interface you could imagine. I finally cracked it.’
