Samsung's Concept Mobilephone Projector!

Well, I am really not sure what it is so appealing about these shiny concepts that appear from time to time but it is undoubtedly nice to look at.

If nothing else than it’s nice too see and to learn something new and unexpected every day and just knowing a something can be a good thing.

For instance, it’s good to know that there are such things like Black Holes somewhere in the universe although at the moment there is no practical use for such knowledge.

So, although it's hard to expect that you'll ever see most of them in your hands anytime soon it I still interesting to see what will the future of mobile phones look like?

Anyway, here's another mobile projector phone concept but this one is a bit more thought out, tho not without its problems. It offers portability and the communications functions of a mobile phone with a projector to support a new lifestyle and offer a large screen viewing experience inside a thin and sleek portable package!

Small, two inch displays that are common to mobile devices such as cell phones are barriers to growth of exciting mobility markets, because they limit the user viewing experience

This new projection display solutions are expected to eliminate this bottleneck, benefiting consumers, mobile operators, content providers, and consumer electronics OEMs.

It obviously looks like Samsung's concept projector phone, very detailed and nice looking phone with inbuilt projector but unfortunately there is no any further information on this in terms of model number, actual feasibility, release date or even if this is a working prototype.

Made of polycarbonate that is highly durable, insulating and energy saving with a graphite sheet to increase heat conductivity to dissipate heat. The edge is made of aluminum to enhance heat radiation away from the projector module and function keys. In another words, this thing would get hot!

The only problem is fcat that projectors produces a lot of light to get sharp saturated images. Surely a phone’s battery would run dry within minutes if tasked with such a job. Not so according to the designer because projector is based on the new laser technology with lower battery computation.

The projection system is part of a newer generation of miniaturized video components. That combined with advancements in battery technologies provide for an acceptable viewing experience. New revolutionary laser based projection technology enables high-resolution images 20 times larger than the mobile device itself!

Nano-projector ensures an eye-safe, always focused superior quality, powerful projected image, elements essential for frequent usage by mobile product consumers.
