    Hi, I am writing a technical book about the specification for a Holodeck. I have designed a motherboard level photonic simulator and am going to add volumetric simulation capability if time allows. I am using my own concept mathematics to portray functionality at a proof of concept level. Thus the book is about proof of concept which is at stage one of the design pipeline, but at this stage it will show a working model of a photonic computer and how it loads an operating system and how it can drive a volumetric display and I have a theoretical approach to adding touch and the concept of realism to a scene in the holodeck.

    Thank you. For my book I will have a lot of medical terminology. As well as doctors, nurses, wound care etc. I have a new perspective on how I will proceed. Great advice

    Hi Steven, Sounds like you explore some interesting aspects of mathematics. What is the title of your book ? Paul Grodkowski

    I am writing a how to book (thus technical book) and thought I would get some how to step---at least one idea of how to keep the book interesting. this video was not helpful.

    mmm, so be your crazy self when writing boring technical work? Health can be boring to some, but you just gave me an idea. Within the book we could put some colourful stories.
