The Future of Mobile Technology is a project undertaken by Callil Capuozzo. This compelling proposal explores the range of innovative materials and mechanisms that are currently available and extrapolates to imagine what might be possible in the design and manufacturing of portable personal electronics in the years to come.
This is a revolutionary concept for a tablet that's almost as physically flexible as fabric. Composed of many layers of ultra-thin components, the gadget's most seductive feature is its glossy OLED touchscreen. Hold and fold the invention in any way you like and it's sensitive enough to alter its display. Different commands can be communicated simply by manipulating the tablet in specific ways. One neat function is that through creasing it once, the lower part will convert into a keyboard. Over time, the device even evolves to more efficiently meet your needs.
