Instead of picking up a phone, you’ll simply wave your hand through the air to open up floating screens. Holographic interfaces will pop up effortlessly in front of you, allowing quick access to calls, messages, and virtual meetings. These augmented reality screens will become so common you’ll no longer consider them futuristic. You’ll just speak or gesture naturally, and the system will instantly respond to your commands.
