Mozilla Seabird Concept Phone: Dual Projectors, 3D Mouse

Mozilla Seabird Concept Phone: Dual Projectors, 3D Mouse
Mobile processors are quickly approaching speeds that allow phones to act more and more like truly pocketable computers, but one of the areas that still needs to be addressed is how to facilitate text input and visual output that rivals traditional notebooks.

Mozilla's concept "Seabird" phone presents a few interesting ideas. For starters, the Android-based handset would have two pico projectors built into either side of the phone. When placed on a flat surface, each projector would present half of a touch-based laser QWERTY keyboard.

When placed in a specially-angled dock, one of the projectors could be used to toss the phone's screen up on a wall while the other provided a full laser QWERTY keyboard and touchpad to the user.

The other cool feature would be a Bluetooth headset built into the phone itself that, when popped out, could double as a mouse. It'd feature a clickable button and would work in mid-air to navigate the phone's interface.
Check out the video below for a look at the concept phone in action:

10 Insanely Awesome Javascript Effects

Yes, it's insane, I found these javascript effects in chrome experiments website, and I think I should promote and show them to all of you. Enjoy :)

Introduction

Alright, have you ever seen these effects? Awesome, stunning and cool javascript effect! It's part of the chrome experiment and it's amazing. When I first look at it, I was like, whoa, that couldn't be done with flash few years ago!
I have chosen 12 of them that I really like, and I hope you will enjoy them. Best view with google chrome, firefox or Internet explorer will be a little bit laggy or could not run at all.

CANOPY








Canopy is a fractal tree zoomer, vector style. Press play to start falling, click to go faster. Try turning Mutation and Bloom on. The tree will get a little weirder
BALLPOOL








Start by shaking the browser, then create new balls (click on empty space), move some others (drag) and reset the screen (double click).

STARFIELD








A simple starfield (512 stars).

LIQUIDPARTICLES








Play around with particles and their liquid-like motion, move your mouse through them, occasionaly click or hold down the mouse button.

MANYLINES








Line drawing via particle system

3DMODELVIEWER








Javascript 3d Model Viewer is an experiment realyzed with javascript and canvas element (HTML 5). It's possible to view 3d models (dinosaur, ship, helicopter), rotate them, change color and transparency and add a motion blur effect.

KALEIDOSCOPE








A kind of kaleidscope made only of filled circles with opacity. All parameters are random, so the scheme change everytime.
COLORS CUBE








Colorscube is a simple mapping of the RGB colorspace into 3d. A little bit of alpha goes a long way. Try it in black.


ORANGE TUNNEL








Classical tunnel effect, demoscene style.
DEPTH OF FIELD








300 balls form a plane, a cube, a little universe, a sphere and then disappear. Unfortunately this piece is shy and doesn't want to interact with you yet. But nothing stops you from watching it from any angle.

Now, Recharge Your Mobile Phone For Free :Of course a Credit card is required

Accelyst Solutions has launched Freecharge.in to allow pre-paid users to recharge their mobile phone for almost free. The website boasts to connect both retailers as well as pre-paid users through its mobile recharge offering. Their offering is touted to be unique as the amount paid for recharge is returned in the form of shopping coupons of some of the known retailers in India, thereby making the recharge virtually free.

If a user recharges his pre-paid connection for Rs 100 by paying for it online on http://www.freecharge.in, he will also receive discount coupons worth Rs 100 that one can avail at any of the listed retailers. Currently Freecharge.in is offering coupons of McDonald's and Barista. But it has plans to expand its retail connections to offer coupons of national brands of restaurants, multiplexes, apparels and grocery stores.

Kunal Shah, managing director, Accelyst Solutions, shares, "At Freecharge, we have taken this challenge head on and are constantly working towards improving user experience."

The online pre-paid recharge business currently contributes to less than 1 per cent of the total prepaid recharge but given the volumes of the Indian telecom industry even this amount runs in over 100s of crores.

Apple iTransparent Mobile Phone



Apple Phone - concept Phone On one hand, clear conceptual phones already, so this is not just the first, but on the other, the so-called Window Phone has one impressive feature - its transparent housing varies depending on the weather!
Thus, in the sunny days, the screen will be completely transparent, on a rainy day it will show virtual drops on the screen, and on a snowy day it is totally covered with frost, i.e. the translucent screen will look like as well as present a window into a variety of weather. I do not know how practical it will be, but at least, it's a very original idea! :)
