Siemens Study: Cell Phone with Built-in Projector

Siemens Researchers have developed a cell phone featuring a built-in projector system. A laboratory model was presented at CeBIT 2005 in Hanover.

"The system makes it possible to project a complete keypad or display onto a surface. With a special pen, users can write on the virtual keypad and operate the phone's functions".

The demonstration model isn't a fully functional cell phone yet. At CeBIT, a laptop was used to handle the telephone functions.

It hasn't yet been decided whether Siemens will further develop this technology and launch a mobile phone equipped with this system on the market.
