>screens are transparent
>they're not colorful at all, mostly just blue for some reason

That's the most impractical shit ever.

Why is Hollywood so retarded when it comes to tech?

ITT: come up with better alternatives for future tech, specifically, display devices.

>Why is Hollywood so retarded when it comes to tech?
Because it would be wasted effort to make things more realistic. Normalfags don't care about that stuff. Hell, they'd probably call it boring, if Hollywood came up with more realistic devices.

Learn how to be inspired faggot and stop sticking to present day paradigms.

>ITT: come up with better alternatives for future tech, specifically, display devices.
High resolution, high refresh rate, ultra thin, color e ink displays.

You can't really predict design trends, single color interfaces might become all the rage at some point in future, so I can buy that.
HOWEVER, every time I see a transparent screen my blood starts boiling! You have to be an absolute brainlet to think this is a good idea. Not only that it's extremely impractical, but it's completely illogical from social perspective. Why would I want everyone to know what I'm working on.
Imagine a bank cashier logging on their transparent screen computer in front of dozens of customers with "show password" toggled on.

You miss the point.
It isn't that screens are transparent but that everything is integrated in the glass which is a remarkable technological achievement.
As for coloring, blue looks brighter (your TV tends to blue for this reason since it will make more sells) and given transparency it makes sense having everything blue-tinted.

>technological advanced society
>passwords
I'm pretty sure everyone will use biometric at this point.

Maybe it's a new technology that only consumes 1W and is used in workplaces that don't need color? Have you thought of that, mr know it all?

Wow, that's cool. As per Wikipedia, it is already used in cars, trains, aircrafts, elevators etc.

it better be breath DNA testint or some shit like in alien cause fingerprints and eye scans are shite.

Saw that in a Hotel 20 years ago though. Why hasn't it democratized?

>using biometric scans so criminals have a reason to cut you into pieces
miss me with that shit

It is so they can show you what they are looking at

>Why is Hollywood so retarded when it comes to tech?
Hollywood retarded when it comes to anything, tech being just the most obvious *cough*Hackers*couch*.
As for screens/electronic paper, the most common idea is that they should be normal, non-transparent, from one side and transparent from another. I think that would work in some dystopian totalitarian future where you and people around you has to be always keep each other in check over not reading or doing something thought police would frown upon. No Jow Forums for you. In such setting all those one-sided transparent screens make sense.

>2020
>apple makes transparent screen
>media explodes about it
>Jow Forums makes fun of applel for how bad it is
>samsung follows and makes transparent display
>becomes industry standard

This is the answer. Add to it the fact that it "looks cool". Everybody else in this thread is a brainlet especially you guys trying to reason out why the screens would actually be that way in real life. In "le future"

>implying gene-stealers arent gonna fuck you up anyway

desaturated blue color grading is trendy right now in many mediums, just a fad

>It is so they can show you what they are looking at

20 points for Gryffyndor

They show this shit from gorillion angles anyway so you see what's on the screen either way.

Because it's like $100 to $200 per chinkshit alibaba sq. meter, versus some 20 bucks curtains

>women will finally have a purpose

you forgot
>seamless multi device environment

They aren't trying to predict future tech they're trying to show a characters reaction and the information they're reacting to in one shot. How much of a fucking brainlet are you?

>single color interfaces might become all the rage at some point in future
No they won't. Porn needs full color.

i render my porn as monochrome ascii

that stuff is way more interesting than what would be realistic probably. tech aesthetic in films peaked with alien

Obviously the blue is to slow the buildup of melatonin and increase productivity.

Dream Screen Labs transparent DJ touch screen is a real thing. Infected Mushroom uses them

Ah yes, finally we have found an expensive technological replacement for the burdensome curtain

>biometrics
biometrics is good for user id. Not a replacement for password.

True. I dont want my coworkers to see my midget scat port

I imagine some holographic orb capable of fully encompassing someone used with 360° cameras.

>criminals have a reason to cut you into pieces
Maybe it's their last resort?
