Concept for augmented reality mobile phone

Concept for augmented reality mobile phone by The Lightworks.
Blogged at The Mobile Learning Blog. Here's my idea for a really cool mobile phone. A curved transparent OLED screen renders augmented reality data in front of the user's POV, using a camera mounted on one (or both) side(s). The OLED screen is touch sensitive on the *outside* to allow the user to touch the visor and interact with the device. The visor can be stowed over the head (like a headphone band) when not in use. Smaller, more streamlined earphones could make the phone lighter and sleeker. Information about the user's surroundings could be provided to the user in real time, as well as playing of related video or audio content.

This will probably not work for optical/physical reasons. The human eye cannot focus on such a distance or if it would, you'd get a headache after 20 seconds. You'd need lenses.

hi there! thanks for the picture - I just used it for my post: Why ‘Earning Money’ or ‘Being Successful’ Is Not Your Real Purpose (I'm guessing probably not a post you'd expect the picture to be used !!! :))

Hey there Leon,

I am now in the process of approval for the Canon advert which I mentioned above. I will give the photo a credit and attribution on my website which is www.devon74.co.uk and will also upload the final advert with image to my website, once the advert goes live. Is this OK with you, please get in contact with me as soon as possible if you have any questions. I have kept a record of this note etc. My email once again is rob2@devon74.co.uk

cheers

Wow, now that is super cool. It would be awesome if the user could also stream video of what they are seeing in real time to youtube or a blog. I am going to be writing about this on my site: Mobile Phone Reviews

Hi,

The picture definitely provokes more 'WOW' than the REAL head mounted displays that are already available: www.vrealities.com/hmd.html

For example these 'iPhone goggles': www.vrealities.com/i-cinehr.html
