Phone to Carry Video Projector

A South Korean company developed a coin-size laser video projector module that can fit into portable gadgets such as mobile phones and digital cameras.
Iljin Display Thursday demonstrated various prototypes of mini-size projectors, which use its Single LCD Panel technology. Using the technology, users can project photos and video images on the wall from the built-in projector, making a seven-inch, full-color screen.

‘About a half of mobile phones sold these days are equipped with a digital camera. In the future we expect many mobile phones will have built-in projectors too’, said Park Seung-gwon, CEO of Iljin Display, during a press conference in Seoul on Thursday.

‘We expect about five percent of all mobile phones to have the video projector function by 2010. That is more than 60 million units. And we aim to grab about 30 percent of the market at least, or 530 billion won a year.’

The company expected the projector-embedded mobile phones will hit the market from next April, as it has been already co-operating with Korean handset manufacturers such as Samsung Electronics and LG Electronics since December.

    “phones r for calling y turn it into a pc or a tv dam it thats just going to far then the y cost in the high hundreds and somthing like thid mabey thousands” Cmon there are plenty of uses for this. Imagine: your at a bar you took some hot video of your exgirlfriend you could display the video on the wall for all to see! That is just an example I could see plenty to do with it prob use it more then my camera.

    This would be a godsend for people wanting to bring something into theathers to tape first run movies! All they would need is a cell phone.
