Philips’ Simplicity Event
October 6th, 2006
Very cool! Phillips has a pure design event. Philips’ Simplicity Event
Two Interactive examples from business week slideshows:

Drag & Draw
Here’s one to keep the kids occupied. Drag & Draw turns the entire home into a virtual canvas for children. The digital light painting kit enables the user to paint via laser beams. Simply wave the wand over the laser projection bucket, then use it to draw on any wall or surface. Draw a bus on a road, for instance, and then with another flick of the wand that image is suddenly surrounded by a colorful backdrop.
Look at more advanced stuff like:

uWand
uWand lets consumers read and manage all digital content from music and photos to films and games with a simple wand instead of a remote. Move the wand over the image on your screen and you can scroll, select, play, and move elements. Philips hopes that the uWand will stimulate product designers to rethink user interfaces to make them simpler and more user-centered. Philips is in discussions with the electronics industry to introduce the uWand to the consumer market.

World smallest phone?
October 3rd, 2006

via. gizmodo.com
We’ve shown you tiny phones before, but this is getting ridiculous: the Xun Chi 138 is scarcely larger than an AA battery and it weighs just two ounces. Too small to even dial, it requires you to use a stylus on a touchscreen and plug in a headset to talk and listen.
Since it only supports Chinese character recognition, we won’t be seeing it stateside anytime soon, but before it’s shipped here the company might consider learning how to spell the word “megapixels.”
Wonder how to hit those buttons ^^
Three way LCD display
October 3rd, 2006
They have an article on a Sharp LCD that holds three pictures in one:

Sharp tops itself by showing off a triple view LCD display.
Sharp has already introduced dual view LCD displays last year. Today the company releases information of a liquid crystal display that shows three different images viewed from three different angles.
The display uses parallax barriers to separate the image displayed in the three different directions. What resolution the current triple view display has is currently not known.
Am I the only one thinking I could go on a plane and then watch a movie while the peakers next to my might be seeing something boring? or wait, something that would be offensive :D
