UFO Smartphone Projector Concept

The UFO is a new combination smartphone and projector concept that utilises a flexible LCD screen and cloud storage to provide a futuristic look at features that might be included in our  mobile phones in the future. Transforming from a simple mobile phone into a media device, and keyboard for communications and work environments.

The UFO smartphone concept is the brain child of designer Jeong Jaewan, and by folding the smartphone into different shapes allows you to use the built in projector for media display and also to use the interactive laser keyboard.
Unfortunately the UFO smartphone is still just a concept at the moment, but does combine a number of working technologies we have featured here on Geeky Gadgets and pushes them that little bit further into the future.
