The Humane device, which we mentioned earlier is Android and can be powered by a Qualcomm (Snapdragon) chip, is smaller than a smartphone. At the end of the talk, Chaudhry took it out of a specially designed breast pocket and managed to hold it perfectly in his hands.
You only need a small piece of cheese to top it off, and this top has a laser projector that creates a virtual screen on the palm of your hand or other surface. This resulting projection is square in shape and green in color, with good resolution.
There is also a world-facing camera at the top of the device that was used to perform on-stage visual interpretation. Presumably, other sensors will also be present.
Voice input was activated by tapping the body of the device, located under the jacket/cloth, to initiate voice input. There is a band of yellow light at the top when listening/activity.
