Sharing Visuals through Portable Projectors
May 28, 2005
As mobile devices become the most popular tools of the web (see pdf of mobile graph), their small screens aren't exactly ideal for sharing among friends, families, and communities. So I've been thinking, what if you could have the option of projecting your screen to a nearby wall or open space? Back in December of 2004, I read this article about some folks who are actually building prototypes of smaller, portable projectors . Of course it would work best at night in low light, but that's ok. The other option I've been thinking about is that you could bring your iPod or whatever into a connected space and be able to easily connect (with wires or wirelessly) to projectors and screens set up best for that space. We gotta long way to go, but it's coming, so we gotta keep on imagining how it will best facilitate productive communication and cool sharing.
