Mitsubishi Launches Super-Small DLP Video Projector

Mitsubishi Digital Electronics, a developer of home entertainment projector technology, introduced its PocketProjector. Weighing 14 ounces and fitting into the palm of a hand, the tiny LED projector is built for fun and creative applications. It can be battery powered or used with a universal car adapter for mobile video on the fly.

The PocketProjector has one of the shortest projection distances of any mobile projector on the market today: Users can create a 20-inch diagonal screen with only a little over a foot of projection distance, and a 40-inch screen image in less than a yard. The PocketProjector powers on or off quickly, and can display images from notebook computers, portable DVD players, and gaming consoles. It is lighted by three Lumileds LEDs (red, green, blue) that produce an SVGA image from the Texas Instruments' DLP chip. The projector's lighting technology is rated to last 20,000 hours.

Mitsubishi's new PocketProjector will be available in July 2005 through online retailers and major retail channels at a suggested retail price of $699.

Yeah it's pretty cool and the possiblities for small projectors are enormous.

Here's an even smaller DVD display (CyberDisplay), but viewable only by the wearer:

"Kopin CyberDisplay Integrated into Eyetop Wearable DVD Viewer"

Kopin Corp., a provider of microdisplays for mobile consumer electronics, announced that the Kopin CyberDisplay 320C has been selected as the imaging core of the Eyetop DVD, a private, wearable DVD player. The "cool blue" video glasses feature a monocular display near the right eye that gives the experience of a virtual private cinema while allowing users to move about freely, fully aware of their surroundings.

The Kopin QVGA-resolution microdisplay utilizes an active matrix liquid crystal display (AMLCD), which has 76,800 pixels in the 0.24-inch display. Kopin's ASIC chip allows color video images up to 60 frames per second and displays 16 million full colors.
