Holodeck
Theoretically, a Holodeck is a room where you interact with computer generated holograms as if they were real.That is not technically feasible by the very nature of the physics of the problem, but a close second can now be achieved with VR helmets and advances in fractal robotics. A person wearing a portable computer and VR helmet enters a holodeck made of fractal robots.The VR helmet fools the eyes into believing the person is somewhere where he or she is not.The helmet video computer is connected by an infra-red link to the room made of fractal robots, and this room changes shape like computer controlled clay to match the objects seen in the visor, so that everything seems real to the touch. Fractal robots are a new kind of robot made of mechanized cubic bricks of different sizes (i.e. "fractal" cubes) that each move under computer control.
