Holo-Projector... And What Else?
Posted by Darius Wey in "THOUGHT" @ 10:00 AM
"Scientists have developed a holographic laser projector that is significantly more efficient than today's models and could be incorporated into handheld devices - allowing you, for instance, to project snaps from a phonecam onto a wall. It could also be used to replace the screen on a notebook or PDA."
Imagine the day when your Pocket PC projects a holographic image of Princess Leia saying, "Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope!". The holographic projection principle has lingered around for many years but only recently has it been translated into a working product. You can read a little more about it here. Since we're only a few days from commencing a new year, I thought it would be great to ask what you would like to see in a Pocket PC in 2005 (and beyond)! Holo-projectors? Self-recharging batteries? A mobile GeForce 6800? Okay, a couple of those may seem a little farfetched at the moment, but imagination is the key to innovation, isn't it? Anyway. let us know your thoughts! We'd like to hear them. ;-)
