New page

Portable, holographic '''V'''isual '''D'''isplay projectors, commonly called vDeks, were popular [[onSlab]] before the technology became ubiquitous and embedded in the fabric, and scenery, of the Slabscape.

Back in the late 700s domestic models had been refined to the point where they could slip easily into a breast pocket and looked like palm-sized silver cylinders, only slightly bigger than the average adult thumb, and usually had two opposing projection slits. They were [[Sis]]-activated and often coded to a specific citizen for discrete private usage. C-Cure projection interference shielding meant that it was possible to have a conversation with a close friend in public via vDek without a casual passer-by being able to see or hear the conversation.
