Anobar Set Top Display

The Anobar is a FED (Field Emission Display) bar that sits on top of your TV, boasting a resolution of 640 x 96 that guarantees the bane of motion blur is a thing of the past as messages scroll through in real-time, featuring e-mails, Twitters, breaking news headlines and information from a compatible feed. This is available in Japan only at the moment, and the prototype is highly expensive, touching nearly $2,000 to manufacture alone. Hopefully a mass manufacturing process will be able to bring down the ridiculous price in due time, as it will go a long way in alerting me of important work e-mails while I’m catching the Superbowl live without having to get up from my La-z-Boy.
