Microvision touts improvements to PicoP projector

by Chris Ziegler posted May 28th 2007 at 9:30PM

Microvision's subminiature projector hasn't even found its way into a single production cellphone yet, but that's not stopping the company from going back to the drawing board and improving the lil' bugger. Round 2 (our terminology, not theirs) improves viewing angle significantly, giving it a projected image size four times as large as the original without increasing the device's 7mm thick size. The so-called PicoP rocks out with wide VGA (854 x 480) resolution to provide passers-by with a "DVD-quality viewing experience." Guess the only thing left is to integrate it into something we can buy, right, Microvision?

You know, we're nearly four years out from the launch of the RAZR and companies are still pumping out promo images that include the blue protective tape over the Motorola Logo above the screen. Madness, I tell you!

Put this in a PDA (come on I-760) and I will buy it imagine projecting your sling on the wall or playing PocketNES. Now all we need is some better battery life in are handsets.
