35:29 – Map Reader
Coolest gadget yet. A golf ball sized object that projects all known star systems in a three-dimensional map that you can walk through.
39:25 – Communications Headset
We have these now! Except for that cool bronze bar that’s touching Obi-Wan’s forehead. That thing is awesome. In the future, we won’t keep headsets on our head with bands that go over the top. They’ll all clasp tightly to our foreheads. No more embarrassing headset hair!
55:10 – Pedestal Hologram Projector
I’m starting to think that hologram projection technology during this time period has been perfected because, man, these things are everywhere.
58:32 – Jetpack
This item has been on every kid’s wish list until well into adulthood. It’d be easier to think of occasions you wouldn’t benefit from a jetpack than occasions you would.
1:00:56 – Homing Device
We have these now, too! But ours aren’t readily available in our pockets like Obi-Wan’s was and we can’t just throw them 50 feet and watch as they magnetically affix themselves to ascending spacecraft like he did.
1:53:47 – Real-time 3D War Table
It’s probably multitouch-enabled but you don’t want to stick your hands in there while there’s a battle going on. You could lose a finger! Imagine the game of RISK you could play on this thing. Or Chutes and Ladders.
1:56:15 – Handheld Storage Device with Pico Projector
Complete with blueprints for the infamous Death Star. And it has its own built-in holographic pico projector, of course.
That’s it. Stay tuned for Episodes III through VI rolling out all this month.
