Sony Ericsson's head of design, Hiroshi Nakaizumi, realised that there may be a future for small camera phones that project images instead of showing them on a screen. 'Why carry around a display when you can project it onto a wall or page?' says Nakaizumi. The idea is that we select which photo or film we want
to show using a trackball on the end of the phone, then simply point it at any surface and view the projected image. The possibilities it creates are mind-boggling.

They have to work on those batteries then...
If we're supposed to "project the screen" we'll need a hell of a strong light.
Designing things is easy. Making them work is another thing...

and lets hope the person doing the projecting hasn't got the shakes or a nervous twitch.

it would act the same as a data projector, the bulb would need replacing every so often. and do you know how fragile those bulbs are, having them jingle around in your pocket or on a lanyard would surely damage them
nice idea thouhg

Imagine it being able to project streaming video too, or live TV.

Yeah, we can all imagine, but let's get back to reality here!

it is a great job as it is an imagination and a concept. Thinking the reality takes me to battery, with a powerfull lamp and how will they produce the lens for pixel @ pixel

thats a very old pic. but it would be nice, but not really a must have device in my eyes.

The lighting is a mini LED, like those found in the Flash for K700, and the connect flash for T610.
Theyre very powerful and can project for a distance of half a meter with clarity.

InFocus and Mitsubishi have announced "pocket" projectors already. They're using TexasIntrument's DLP chips with 800x600 pixels native resolution and 3 LEDs (red, green and blue) as light sources. These devices can project up to 42" images! The LEDs are last in 20,000 hours..
