we must say, this is quite a different direction than we expected phones to go in because at the point we had gotten this far technologically we didn’t think an actual physical phone would be necessary. it is definitely on our far into the future christmas list and hopefully android santa will have enough to go around. a mixture of sci-fi and environmentalist heaven, this ‘phone’ will surely be the death of any mechanism that begins with an ‘i’.
magic stone phone concept has hologram based functions and a one of a kind user customizable case
This fantastically futuristic concept for a phone has all the functions of a contemporary phone such as: mobility, constant Internet connection, access to documents, games and the best possibilities and means of communication and contact. But these are just basic features. The most important feature is, that you can create your own phone case, fully customizable, painted with pictures you pick from the internet.
Another interesting feature, is that the phone doesn’t require a power charge, it’s case is covered with a nano-material which converts the Sun light into energy or you can use the wireless charging, meaning the battery is charged from magnetic fields. The “Magic Stone” has a touch screen display, but the display is also a hologram projector which is created by a laser. The hologram can be used to project a keyboard for text typing, a map as a GPS, 3D objects such as games, a video or picture viewer, the laser bunches can read the motion in the holographic projection field enabling the user to stretch, minimize, rotate or bank the hologram.
The designer, Aleksander Mukomelov, has thought about everything a user would want from his phone. The “Magic Stone” was also awarded a winner in the Red Dot Design Award 2009.
