I’ve been waiting for this technology; small devices are still limited by their small screens. From Lasers Project the Big Picture:
Tiny, laser-based projectors could transform these pocket-size devices into full-blown entertainment systems by shining images onto walls, tabletops or the backs of airplane seats. In a bright room, the handheld projectors would produce images about as bright and big as a 10-inch laptop screen, said Greg Niven, the vice president of marketing at laser maker Novalux. “If you turn the lights out, you could make the projection 10 feet,” he said.And the quality could be stunning. Lasers generate richer hues than LCD screens, which produce images by passing white light from a bulb through color filters in the screen. [...] And unlike other projectors, laser-based units don’t require focusing: The pinpoint beams of light form a sharp image from any distance.
