Omni Touch Turns Any Surface Into A Touchscreen

Technology comes a touchscreen onto your hand, clothes, a wall, or any surface, thus you'll operate your phone while not removing it from your pocket but this technology is still un-invented :( .

Imagine a world wherever any surface might potentially become a touchscreen for your phone: your hands, clothes, a wall or table. that is the vision behind a replacement Kinect-like technology known as Omni Touch, a wearable system that comes any multi-touch interface onto everyday surfaces, reports New mortal.

Perhaps the foremost convenient facet of the technology is however it may be operated on the go, requiring no special standardization for every new surface it's used on. The system adapts simply to surfaces of most textures in 3D area, thus it works even once the surface isn't flat, like together with your hand, or maybe a bole.

The technology, that is primarily composed of a shoulder-mounted depth camera and a Pico-projector, was developed by researchers at Microsoft and could be a immense improvement over previous prototypes that would solely work on skin. A user study of the technology showed that dragging performance and bit accuracy approached the sensitivity of standard touchscreens.

The device conjointly permits for user flexibility so much on the far side the aptitude of your phone or pill. as an example, users will opt for the position and size of the projected interface, that means that they'll alter the scale of the screen to higher suite their wants and sight. Omni Touch is additionally itself capable of showing intelligence selecting the simplest show setting, that the user does not got to readjust with every new surface.

The only inconvenient facet of the paradigm is that the bigness of the camera and projector, that area unit mounted on a user's shoulder sort of a massive parrot. the nice news, though, is that future prototypes area unit expected to be a lot of smaller, nearer to the scale of a box.

Smartphone Booklet Concept

Smartphone Booklet Concept Designed by Ilshat Garipov

Clutch your pearls because I’m about to say something amazing – nanoparticles! Yes these tiny, near invisible objects can revolutionize the bio medical, optical and electronic fields so designer Ilshat Garipov put pen to paper and came up with the Smartphone Booklet –  a disposable phone as thin as a cardboard made possible by switching from traditional silicon to nanoparticles.

The Booklet unfolds like a pamphlet with each side representing a commonly used application or function. Manufacturers can cut it to any size and once it’s worn out, just recycle it. Don’t worry about private information because everything is served from a cloud. Power is supplied by, SURPRISE, the sun thanks to energy absorbing nanoparticles.

How close is this to reality? Unfortunately not close enough but scientists are working feverishly to find a breakthrough in this field of study so in the meantime hold on to your iPhones, Droids, Galaxies, and Luminas. - yankodesign

Combination of Fashion And Mobility Into An Interesting Concept

Dial (Phone) is a mobile device that can be worn on the wrist, like a bracelet. The concept mixes cutting-edge technology with reference to the products of time gone by. It invokes memories of old-fashioned dial phones.

Due to the ongoing development of technology, the mobile phone’s design becomes smaller and smaller, so the Dial(Phone) has been designed as a fashion accessory.

The Dial(Phone) comes in various finishing materials, being a fashion accessory it has to represent the user’s taste. The looks of the phone vary from luxurious, sporty or elegant. 

The phone is operated by turning the dial. Once started, projected light beams are your guide indicating different characters. These light projected characters can be read if the phone is removed from the wrist and placed on the palm of the hand or on a flat surface. 

The upper part of the dial responds to the user’s touch and by pressing it, in the corresponding number, it facilitates dialing.
