Foldable Smartphone from Limbo


We came across Smart watches from Sony and few other companies that have a small touch screen dial which can be worn to the wrist. That tiny dial can be detached and can be pocketed. Smartphone watch is a very useful gadget in terms of its size and features but it has a limitation. Screen experience cannot be enjoyed while reading text and mails, ad watching videos is out of question. Overcoming such limitations, Limbo has come up with a foldable Smartphone watch.

The Charging Tap

 

Isn't it boring if we charge our multimedia devices the usual way? Why can't we change the method? This very same idea got to one designer who conceptualized a design named 'The charging tap'. All it does is charging your multimedia devices like MP3 players, mobile phones and etc via USB cable.All you have to do is to fix the device to the wall and turn on the tap to get charged!!

Stanford Students Made Transparent Li-Ion Batteries

 

As the mobiles are changing their shape now a days, we were uncertain regarding the charging of devices. We have roller phone mobile concepts, paper thin mobile concepts and so on. But how these mobiles can be charged is the big question. I mean, mobiles generally use Lithium Ion batteries for their smooth running. And the current scalability of these batteries are about an inch or two. Thanks to one of the Stanford graduate, Yuan yang who developed Transparent Li-ion battery with his professor Yi Cui which paves the way to the future consumer electronics. This battery is paper thin [50 Microns] and transparent too.These batteries are made up of Copper, Aluminum and a special substance called Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). 'PDMS is dead cheap and is already being used in contact lenses and in plastic surgeries' says Yang.

Phone which translates to your Language


It's a great breakthrough when every person including blind, deaf and dumb people can be able to use the essence of technology. Unless, the technological advancements we achieved till now will be of no use. Mobile phone manufacturers generally use some techniques to overcome these up to some extent. One example is, we can feel a bulge dot in the center of the phone keypad (on the 5 button). This ensures that blind people too can use the basic features of the phone. What about dumb and deaf people who cannot hear the conversation and make the conversation?

Rollerphone Concept


Previously, I have written about a wrist phone concept that is about to arrive from Samsung. That one is a normal watch phone concept. Now it's time to go some thing beyond. A phone that looks like a wrist band or any fashionable bracelet or ring. This concept is named as Rollerphone by its designer. This eye catching gadget serves many features. Mainly it has no direct display. It showcases virtual display through laser rays upon the user's hand or between the device's ends. It is a unique phone which has all the features and with trendy look. It can be worn for every occasion. Also it has feather touch interface for the control and usage of the phone. It even has built in speaker and microphone, and a sliding piece which can be dragged outside for an interface to make calls and to converse over the phone.

Pen Phone



The Traccia is a phone concept modeled on how we use a writing instrument, specifically a pen. The intuitive way we write on a sheet is translated to commands for the phone thanks to the embedded optical sensor  located at the end of the stick. Basically whatever you write gets translated to a command or function via the installed software. This means your invisible writing can be converted to SMS or an email, just like that!
The navigation design is basic with just three simple keys to one end. The built in polycarbonate gives the phone a natural feel and makes the touchscreen even more alluring. And of course no phone is complete without a camera, so the Traccia positions its camera at the center of the arc, right under the display. All said I done, I just have to wonder if the grip of this phone is as comfortable as the rest. An arc on a stick doesn't look ideal, but you never know till you don’t try it.
