What it is
There was a time when cameras were the new revolutionary technology added to cell phones, now it's projectors. Consumers want the freedom to go anywhere they want and do do whatever they want and that is exactly the goal of the Pico. The idea behind the Pico Projector is to combine the cell phone and the television, two largely used technologies of today. The projector gives the rich media of a large screen but the movables of a cell phone.

How it works
Creator of Pico believes it will "Transform the way people deliver their personal media content". Since no screen is necessary movies and photos can be projected absolutely anywhere. No matter how close or how far the projector is to the "screen/surface" it is always in focus, since it doesn't use a traditional lens. In order to do that Microvision invented a new laser. The electrical signals of an image are decoded into separate lasers: red, green, blue. As well as a scanner located in the center, the mirror reflects the 30 million pixels per second. It has many possible uses: cell phone, laptop, military devices, medical devices....

Analysis
When I first saw the video about the Pico I did like it although I didn't automatically think oh my god I have to get it, it doesn't seem to be that urgent for my needs. When the production increases and the hardware is already on new devices such as the cell phones it then just ends up being a new feature the phone has. I personally would not go out and buy the device for myself or upgrade my cell phone, but in the future obtaining a phone with it already built in is plus.

They claim the resolution is really good and I'm impressed with that. I've just always felt that so much is lost especially with movies when it comes to projectors; the contrast is minimal and ends up having dust particles constantly passing in front of the projection which reduces HD quality. They clam to be working on an HD version; I would love to see a projection do that in real life.As well the price is fair enough about $60 to get it installed on your phone or about $200-400 for the device.
