Goodbye monitor....Light Blue Optics Demonstrates Touch-enabled Pico Projectors

06/02/2009

So goodbye monitor. This needs a bit more lumen and then you have your touch screen with you all the time. A pico projector, touch enabled.

Light Blue Optics is demonstrating their touch-enabled projection system at SID. LBO are working on Holographic Laser-based projectors modules, which should be released for OEM's towards the end of 2009.

LBO are saying that a product configuration can allow the user to touch the projected image to control the projector or computer - basically they are demonstrating a touch-projector-interface.

Their modules support WVGA-QVGA images at 10 lumens. LBO’s proprietary technology has an ultra-wide throw angle and the ability to correct for optical aberrations using software. These features enable LBO’s miniature projection systems to switch between conventional front projection onto a wall and a novel table-down projection mode where the device is placed on a table and the content is projected down onto the surface in front of it.
