Demo 2003 was held this week in Scottsdale, Arizona. This is an unusual event because exhibitors must show technologies at work, not just presentations.
Jon Fortt, a reporter for the San Jose Mercury News, picked ten promising technologies he thinks "are poised to change the way we interact with technology in the next three years or so." Here is the list.
Mok Reality Editor (Turns digital pictures into 3-D environments)
PKZIP 6.0 (Compresses and encrypts files before you send them)
TerraPlayer (Streams MP3s from your PC to any room in the house)
Socratic Tutor (Sets up a whiteboard instant messaging session between tutors and students in need)
Pixim D2000 Video Imaging System (Displays streaming video in better detail despite bad lighting)
MailFrontier Anti-Spam Gateway (Blocks unwanted e-mail before it hits your in-box)
Liquid Machines V1 (Controls access to sensitive corporate documents, at work or at home)
Fax2it/Scan2it (Keeps digital record of outgoing and incoming faxes)
Infoscope (Translates image of text from one language to another)
BigFix Enterprise Suite (Closes security holes on networked computers)
