In the year 2012, Samsung had launched the Galaxy Beam smartphone which came with an in-built pico projector. Even though the idea was quite interesting, the device didn’t find an audience or market.
Now it seems that the South Korean giant has again taken up the projector idea and this time Samsung is working on introducing a mobile projector accessory for the company’s Galaxy smartphone series and other computing devices.
Last month, the US Patent & Trademark Office had published a granted patent from Samsung which is regarding a new kind of portable projector that could sit on a table or can be easily attached to a wall to show slides, pictures, videos or simply watch live TV. The projection system can be controlled by a smartphone or any other kind of computers such as a tablet, laptop, desktop, wearable devices like a smartwatch or a set-top-box.
However, do keep in mind that since the patent has been approved and the company might be working on it, it doesn’t mean that such a product will actually make it to the market commercially. It will be interesting to see what the company is planning with this one.
Meanwhile, Samsung is gearing up to launch its next-generation Galaxy Note series smartphones — Samsung Galaxy Note 10. The company has already sent out media invites for the “Unpacked” launch event on 7th August.
