MIT’s Media Lab celebrated its silver anniversary last week by opening its secretive lab doors to the press. It also invited tech luminaries, such as MIT Lab founder Nicholas Negroponte (now heading One Laptop Per Child) and Google CEO Eric Schmidt, to share their insight on innovation and technology breakthroughs. The Media Lab, which has pioneered everything from robotic prosthetics to the electronic ink inside the Kindle e-reader, showed off some of the latest technology that could soon shape modern life.
