MEMS intelligent sensors give cellphones a 2,000-inch screen projection
Bharat | Jul 22 2009

Mobile phone projectors haven’t gained momentum, thus we are still stuck with the boring standard VGA screens on our handsets. However, a module developed for mobile phones, by Usuda Research Institute & Systems, enables cellphones to flaunt a 2,000-inch screen, allowing users to see content on a screen size never fathomed.

Developed with an intelligent MEMS motion sensor and equipped with MEMS acceleration and angular velocity sensors, the module for now is exclusively created for NTT DoCoMo’s latest handset, the T-01A. Controlled by the T-01A’s touch panel, the module can be used to show images clicked by the mobile phone’s built-in camera in real time.

The module uses T-01A’s MicroUSB for its interface and requires 170KB memory capacity and a handset with about 1GHz processing speed to run efficiently. Because the module has MEMS acceleration and angular velocity sensors, by moving the phone embedded with the module in various directions, the user can view content on a virtual 2,000-inch screen.
