Concept smartphone
Russian designer Ilshat Garipov has created a concept design using the very futuristic nanoparticle technology which is “tiny, near invisible objects can revolutionize the bio medical, optical and electronic fields,” writes Long Tran of YankoDesign.com.
The Smartphone Booklet is a disposable phone that is super thin and rather than use silicon as smartphones now use, the concept takes advantage of nanoparticles, allowing flexibility with the desired rigidity. Tran notes that manufacturers can cut the material into any size and when it’s worn out, a user can simply recycle it.
The Smartphone Booklet takes full advantage of the cloud where all private information is stored, making it simple to dispose of when done. One of the best parts of the concept, however, is that it is solar powered, even by sitting on a window sill to be charged, so the idea of running out of battery mid-day is attempting to be solved by the future generation of smartphones.
Tran asks, “How close is this to reality? Unfortunately not close enough but scientists are working feverishly to find a breakthrough in this field of study so in the meantime hold on to your iPhones, Droids, Galaxies, and Luminas.”
Below are several renderings of the designer’s Smartphone Booklet design:
