Please put your creativity caps on, and help me come up with the name of
a device. It's for a short story set in 2101 that I'm writing.
What would be the word people will commonly use in the future (as they
do "touchscreen" today) to describe an interactive desktop 3D
projection? I don't want to waste words describing it, because it would
be as common as our laptops, and simply the device that would replace
our keyboard, mouse, wacom and monitor.
The word (or perhaps as many as two or three words) needs to be
self-explanatory to the reader, but not have enough weight to distract
from the narrative.
Any ideas? Thanks, Sally
