"Click.to" makes sharing and copy&paste on and offline a breeze (@clicktoapp)

Clickto_google_en_ex
WHAT: You press CTRL + C hundreds of times a day, but between copy and paste are far too many clicks? Now you can’t find the correct target program, for better or worse? And all the while, your colleague has been complaining that you have already sent e-mails without attachments?
These are all detours that cost; time, money, patience and energy. Click.to is the true copy and paste. It brings a Smartphone feeling to the computer, desktop applications and web pages are turned into intelligent network components, all working together. Click.to furthers the Copy & Paste principle idea: With one click, you can find an unknown word with click.to Wikipedia or a technical article with click.to Google. Click.to can also quickly send screenshots to co-workers via email, or find an address in no time with Google Maps. Click.to programs on your computer work together, making boundaries and barriers smaller. This will save you precious time and money. If you have tried click.to once, you’ll never want to take the long route to your programs again.

2) Motion capturing system: Motion capturing systems record movement and interpret it, so that a user of the virtual reality simulator is able to see his hand rising in the virtual world when he raises it in the real world

3) Motion simulator: The motion simulator is a device of about 2m x 1,5m x 2m which the user climbs into. It conveys that the person inside is able to move around and turn around freely while he almost remains in the same place in reality (similar principle for example for treadmills or hamster balls). InReal Technologies developed a forward-looking technology that targets existing problems other approaches are facing and filed a patent for the underlying technology
