Miniature Reality Display

The idea is somewhat simple, and something from a dream I had as a kid.
There would be a square or any size contained hologram display, and the "cutout" or "crop" would be a small scale representation of "anywhere in the world".
Such signal could f.ex. be transmitted once we get to quantum data transfer as it would be real-time with much less lag.
One could imagine a piece of a home-area, your baby's room as a miniature, a piece of deep ocean or submarine cameras tracking a WHALE and you'd see it's life as like a fish tank but a holographic fish tank with anything inside it, from anywhere in the world.
It could be your hometown, a home away from home, the nearest cafe, a place near some planet or star or system in space (sending transmitters is easier than sending people to other planets), so you would have a piece of anywhere anywhere, within the range of what would be made legal by allowance from the ruling systems in the world of course.
So, a whole different thing than a screen, simply put. And a lot more interesting as you can look at other places in the world at different scales, it could also give you a distance from certain problems and troubles with life as a healing, it could be a football/soccer field for sports. It could be, well, just about anything.
Note: I wish I had some graphics to show or animation/video attempt. Maybe it can be produced, to add to this article later.

Acres Of Crops As Floors
One could easily envision a more complex structure to farming, where one could by technology design a "housing complex" for plants and crops of any nature for production of food.
These would have mirrored sun-input from the sides towards the ceiling above down onto the crops below in each floor.
This could be a solution for overpopulated areas to introduce more local production of food.

With what I have seen coming at me on Facebook, of implied "impending doom" or the like, I have of course opted out of that kind of tactic and belief in any end to things, and as a re-phrasing in wordplay would rather suggest innovative thinking in f.ex. farming!
Lets say we were to have, like we now have for coffee, automatic creation of different sorts of coffee with advanced coffee machines. What if we used a similar approach to farming, vegetables.
I was just thinking an automated box of size 1.5 x 1 x 1 meters or so, that would have earth, water supply that you filled, different boxes for different seeds, and robotics with watering system inside that would automate the growing/creation of vegetables for household use.
So you would order seeds, put them in compartments, and look at them grown (planted and groomed by robotics), harvested by robotics and out in an output tray you would have ready-made vegetables for home use.
Just an idea!
On the AR vs VR Debate

As I see the AR and VR markets growing, and different bigger vendors and venture capital goes into creating the evolution into this new (but as some see it, old) potential of changing what we see,
there is an importance of seeing past what people have thought AR and VR to be in the past. Particularly how currently, even if innovative in game-markets and consumerist markets, they are a bit caught up in just extending the current trends in mobile app style GUIs, and overlay / help interfaces, coloring of what is seen, outlining, and adding information in a 2D or 3D fashion, yet very rudimentary compared to where it could be going in the time ahead.
What if one could imagine AR as a filter, not an overlay engine but a filter of actual reality perceived?
What is needed is the computing power to real time observe one's surroundings by depthmeasuring and camera technologies, sensor technologies, to construct a 3D model on the fly, which would require more than what current cellphones are capable of delivering of computing power, and also would need to far supersede today's somewhat quirky bulky big glasses, and frankly, even if many like it, many do not fancy walking around with their cellphone attached in front of their eyes, we need something far less intrusive for daily outdoor operation in AR space.
The real time 2much2process model which represent "reality" as perceived, would be as a surface, think today's HTML5 for web, tomorrow actual reality in it's full set of depth and color, material detection, heat detection, sensory inputs as wind, humidity, weather, every possible sensory input, it would be as a canvas that could be modified and / or extended in any thinkable way, to make it out throught the filtering and reconstruction into the wearers / users perception. Innovation on implants and other ways of programming the visual cortex directly are also going on, but there has to be a far greater detail of real time reconstruction for the real "magic" of AR and VR will be understood and seen, my 2 cents.
Key thoughts for innovation: Reality as a canvas, modification of reality (edit in/out), nontangible objects, hence easily disposable. You can add to that the potential of controlling possibility to sense, like limitation of movement of physical bodyparts, in a way to near a possible way of being able to actually touch virtual objects, too.
Just another idea rant from just another visionary.

An implant or device(s) attached to your body measuring in real time what your bodily state is and if there is a requirement for action regarding your healthcondition.
It will automatically make appointment to the nearest doctor (your personal or local if you are traveling) and/or hospital if required, eliminating the need to worry about your health.
Further advancement in measuring technology will be keeping a track of whatever goes through your bloodstream in real time, no need for blood tests having to be done as a chip can detect infections and/or events in your blood circulation.
Further development of in-place medicine printing technique, could yield a device capable of printing medicine straight into your bloodstream if a measuring system alerts that you need it.
A sample in this direction is the recent development of nearly invisible wearables and digital tattoos, read more also here: Rise of the nearly invisible wearables.
