Advice From the Past About the Future
"I'm an inventor. I became interested in long term trends because an innovation has to make sense in the world in which it is finished, not the world in which it was started” --Ray Kurzwell“The future is here. It's just not evenly distributed yet" -- William Gibson“The best way to predict the future is to invent it” –- Alan Kay

Why Look at Past Visions of the Future?
Show that it is possible to predict the futureIllustrate that you can prototype the future with tools of todayNot all visions come true, however there are some very surprisingly accurate ones

A prototyping tale…
Anyone want to guess when a mobile device came to market that had handwriting recognition built in with a stylus?
![Page 16: Directions in HCC](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062812/56816376550346895dd45500/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

The Apple Newton
First significant PDA available on the market (released in 1993).Handwriting recognition built into it!Huge failure on the market.
– Too big and heavy to carry– Too slow to run most
applications– Handwriting detection was not
very accurate
![Page 17: Directions in HCC](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062812/56816376550346895dd45500/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Redesigning the NewtonAfter failure of the Newton, two of its inventors left Apple to design a new device and used techniques from all areas of HCI.
– Identified that the Newton failed because it was too big and too slow.
– Focused on exploring the form of the device through “block of wood prototypes” which Jeff Hawkins carried around to decide what the correct form should be.
– Redesigned the hardware specifications so it would fit with the smaller form.
– The basic Pilot 1000 retailed for $299, half the price of a Newton.

Additional informationWhen working out the Palm's handwriting recognition system, Graffiti, Hawkins said he scribbled notes all day on a pad of paper. But he didn't write the letters side by side. Instead he scrawled them one on top of each other -- just the way it's done on the Palm -- ending up with indecipherable blobs on the page. Hawkins told how his make-pretend method led him to conclude that voice recognition will never be a good way to control computers -- a notion that goes against current wisdom, including Microsoft's, which is sinking millions of dollars into researching the endeavor. Hawkins said when he's sat around pretending to control his computer by voice the experience is unsatisfactory and uncompelling.
