Concept phones will change your concepts

Being a student of electronics and communication engineering may give me a tiny background about the fundamentals of the fabrication as we already have projects and practices in the field…one of which is a microprocessor that performs a very limited number of operations: such as addition, subtraction and outputting the input as it is.
This is not as easy as you think…you can imagine the complexity from the picture shown, this is the adder/subtractor processor.

So, if you were in my shoes, you would think of Nokia 3310 as a miracle .
Of course we are not going to talk about Nokia 3310 in this article, but about new technologies that shall knock me down or make me feel like being in heaven according to what I practically know about the thing.

First of all, I’d like to clarify the meaning of concept phones; it’s a form of illustration where the main goal is to convey a visual representation of the phone’s design or idea before it’s put into the final product.
So, in our article we are going to talk about some future designs and ideas that might be seen on the ground soon.

Nokia 888
If you see the design of this phone, you would think for once that it’s not more than a piece of paper or plastic but it’s so far more than that…it’s such an incredible device, having so much inside, based on the concept of artificial intelligence that makes it like your best friend. It can guide you to wherever you want and even suggest what to do through your day.
Receive your incoming calls, send messages, use your GPS to identify your location and your destination and let your phone tell you how to go there, accept the invitation for a party with your friend…after that wear your mobile as bracelets on the go.

To get the full picture, watch this.

Apple iTransparent phone

As a pioneer company in that field, Apple introduced the new 4G iPhone iTransparent which has a lot of features and specifications that makes it a piece of the future in your hand: It is totally transparent that you can see through. It adapts the theme of your mobile according to the weather as you can see for a sunny or a rainy day. Last but not least of what we know about the new 4G iPhone is that you can easily go to the handwriting mode when you blow your breathe on it.

Sony Ericsson FH

This one is a new design of a concept phone presented by Sony Ericsson…the special thing about this design is it’s  functionality, it’s not just a mobile that can get transparent or roll around your wrist, it’s more than that.

Sony Ericsson FH is a flip phone that pivots vertically and horizontally presenting more options for the user as you can use it as a normal design with the upper part as your screen and the lower one as your number pad, or you can just rotate it down and merge the two parts forming one wide screen that will display your media files awesomely.
Moreover, you can split the two parts and use it as an intercom allowing easy communication between the two parties holding each end.

Nokia morph

This one is the surprise that I have been hiding to the end. I know some of you may have already read about in a previous article of the magazine but I couldn’t help it…I had to write about it as it really rocks…it brings the future in your hands. So, now we are about to talk about some major points about it.
The device at the large scale of our eyes seems like a paper sheet of small dimensions as your hand for example, but at the nano scale (minimized by 1 per billion scale), you will find a very complicated world…it’s enough to imagine that 100,000 transistors (the building unit of any electronic system) can fit on a size of a single fly hair. So, what we do with all these transistors? Let’s see…
- As you flip your mobile, it adapts the position it’s in. If it’s unfolded, then it’s a full keypad…If folded, it’s a number pad as a normal phone…If you roll it around your wrist, it acts like a watch or bracelets.
-  It also has the property of transparency, as it’s not less than the others…and the secret is the Nanotechnology Electronics that can get invisible to the human eye.
- Morph also enables you to observe your local environment, analyze it and detect the chemical compounds in the air. Thus, your phone can be your guard angel that keeps you away from dangers.
- Having this phone in your pocket can make you go nuts as you would be so terrified if something wrong happened to it or if it caught some dirt…but I can tell: you shouldn’t be…Morph is a dirt repellent as its surface is superhydrophobic so it will not catch any dirt, and the other thing is that you don’t have to be so worried about it as it has a stretchy surface that can easily adapt the motion.
- The greatest feature of the Morph - I think – is that it takes its energy from the sun...it’s provided with solar cells that acts as grass fibers, this way you will never be out of service .

The last feature is really wonderful for girls; fashion loving girls:)…as you can take a picture of your dress or your bag using your phone that will turn into the theme of your mobile then roll it around your wrist and here you have your stylish bracelets. Cool! Isn’t it?

Know more about it here.

As we saw from the collection of concept phones that we presented today, the near future may be full of surprises…this new year of 2011 may witness a breakthrough in the field of communication…we may see some of these concepts turning into real products that we can’t live without.
Are we going to have transparent mobile phones? Will we charge our phones using solar energy? Shall we have a mobile phone that can be our best friend? That’s what we are going to see through this year.
So, have a Happy New Year full of technology breakthroughs .
