Intel 'Cube of Awesome': It's really pretty awesome

CES 2010

Intel didn't tell us the name of its two-sided information display on its stand. But, because it's the shape of a cube, and 100 per cent awesome, we've decided it should be called 'The Cube of Awesome'. Powered by two Intel Core i7 computers, and some proprietary projection technology, we were quite literally rendered speechless by this demo.

Designed to allow people to view and interact with various Internet feeds, this beautiful touchscreen interface made interacting with it an absolute pleasure. The queue to get near it was pretty large too, and everyone agreed it was a totally mind-blowing piece of kit.

Intel demoed various feeds, including access to video clips, although we didn't see those in the demo. You could keep an eye on Twitter and Flickr feeds, giving you access to content tagged in a certain way. Intel had opted to follow the #CES hashtag, which meant we could see photos from around the show -- it was very cool indeed.

Will you be getting one in your living room? We don't think so. But it was a cool technology demo, and a brilliant way of demonstrating what the i7 platform can do.
