Minuscule Microprojector Promises Bright, Touchable Displays Of The Future

Mini-Projektor für SmartphonesThese Fraunhofer microprojectors are still quite a ways off from being implemented into real phones, but the technology is certainly interesting. Based on an insect's compound eye, the projector is a wafer of tiny LEDs that can twist and turn depending on position. This means there is no "keystoning" and the beams striking the surface will always be "crisp and clear." ?Our projector consists of hundreds of tiny microprojectors in an array, each of which generates a complete image," said Marcel Sieler, a researcher. "This technology, known as 'array projection,' is modeled on nature ? on the compound eye found in some insects ? and with it for the first time we can create very thin and bright LED projection systems with tremendous imaging properties."

Nokia nabs 808 PureView space shot of this big, blue 41-megapixel marble

Image

We've seen plenty of shots of the Nokia 808 PureView in action, but they've all been hampered by boring old terrestrial bounds. Thankfully, a team attached the handset to a giant balloon for a little more perspective. The photo is at the end of the six and half minute video after the break, but thankfully there are a lot of lovely shots of Iceland accompanying atmospheric music to keep you busy in the meantime.

[Thanks, Chad]

Toshiba made $898.8 million profit, could manage to lend you twenty bucks

Image

Toshiba isn't going with the flow this financial season, bucking the trend and posting a healthy (albeit reduced) net profit of 73.7 billion yen ($898.8 million). Whilst down from $1.7 billion in 2010, the company points to the European debt crisis, Japanese Earthquake and high oil prices as the barriers to further success. Unlike its local rivals, Tosh branched out early into "social infrastructure," building everything from radiation detectors, power plants and LED light bulbs -- businesses that made a stack of cash while its computer and TV businesses slumped. Unencumbered by these crises in the future, the company is projecting to make $1.68 billion across the next 12 months -- at which point it might treat itself to a spa day, or something.
