    Konica Minolta Working on Thumbdrive-Sized Projector

    It appears that Konica Minolta will take mini-projector one-upsmanship to the next level with a new device that measures about 1.6 inches long, .79 inches wide, and only .3 inches thick—roughly the size of a smallish thumbdrive. When all is said and done, Konica believes that this new projector will be able to throw 20-inch color images in XGA resolution at distances of about 20 24-inches away from the screen and use less than 1-watt of power while operating. Unfortunately, the device will not be ready for public consumption for another 2 or 3 years, which opens up the door for another company to one-up their one-up.

    Greasy Garage or Helluva Home Theater?

    The garage, also known as "car hole" in some circles, has traditionally been a somewhat wasted space. Aside from holding vehicles for a few hours of the day, it's often a crap collector, the place for rusty saws and tangled Christmas lights. Electronic House has assembled a list of five garages that have transcended the status quo to home theater status. This particular theater was converted from a 3-car garage and features a premium 1080p projector along with 7,000W of surround sound. So while the setup can't haul ass, worry not, it still annoys the hell out of the neighbors. [Electronic House via CrunchGear]

    Sanyo LP-XTC50 Projector Uses Lamp Switching Powers to Last 6000 Hours

    In case you need a projector for your business, or just want the biggest, awesomest home theater on the block, Sanyo's new offering is a pretty good bet. The LP-XTC50 uses dual lamps, which gives you a pretty impressive 6,000 hours in alternate lamp mode, and up to 3,000 hours in regular single-lamp mode. It has also updated its brightness settings, at 5,000 ANSI lumens, and offers a hi-def resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels. Other features include horizontal and vertical lens shift, keystone correction, workable projection at any 360-degree angle and 10 auto-switching filters. This monster of a projection machine will be available on Jan. 9, 2009 for roughly $10,730. [Sanyo via Crunchgear]

Previously, the 60 percent range that 35mm film offered was considered the benchmark for other projectors and displays to measure themselves up against. More »

    Pico Cube Projector is World's Smallest, Says Maker Epoq

    "About the size and weight of a hen's egg" runs the tagline for this projector. That'd be some special large cubic hen then. But this Pico Cube EPP-HH01 from Epoq projector is undeniably tiny—it's just 2.2 x 2.2 x 1.6 inches across, which Epoq says makes it the world's smallest. It projects VGA resolution images from its LCoS image chip with a 3W LED light source giving it a 80:1 ANSI contrast ratio. It's no high-end video projector of course, but you don't expect that from a gadget of this size. And it does somehow squeeze in a speaker, making it handy for impromptu business presentations and such. It's due to ship this month, for a suitably tiny $230. [Gadgetcraver.com]

    LG's HS102 Projector Has Divx Player Aboard, 2-Hour Battery

    Projectors, unless they're of the mini- or HD-kind tend to have me thinking "meh..." apart from LG's new HS102. 'Cause though it has just 800 x 600 native resolution with switchable 4:3/16:9 ratios, it's got Phlatlight LED illumination tech that gives it a 2,000:1 contrast ratio and 150 lumen brightness and it's got a Divx player (playing files from USB-attached storage, it seems) built right into it. And there's a rechargeable battery jammed in there too, making this projector portable in the real sense, since it'll run for two hours unplugged. Out in South Korea for around a $555 equivalent, there's no word on when it'll hit these shores. [Naver via Zoomgadget]

    Dell M109S Pocket Projector Displays More Than Just Pockets

    You can't tell from the image, but that Dell M109S projector can fit in the palm of your hand (3.64" x 4.12" x 1.46"). With a modest brightness of 50 lumens and resolution of 858x600 (SVGA), the DLP-based M109S maintains a respectable throw distance of roughly 8 feet. The LED bulb will last four years before replacement and the system uses the same power adapter as some Dell laptops, making it all the more portable. The Dell M109S is on sale today starting at $500. Update: A review on a prototype of the projector is already out. [Dell via Toys and Gadgets]

    News Flash: Moto R&D Working On Prototypes Other Than RAZR 3!

    In a panel at GigaOm's Mobilize conference today, Motorola VP of Applied Technology Fred Kitson revealed some prototype display technologies they have in the works, confirming the company has more on the mind than the damn RAZR. One phone prototype Kitson described involves an embedded projector that made use of 3 lasers that project on a wall, while another makes use of a headset display. He also made mention of home displays that could automatically detect your phone as you move into a target range, and dedicate a portion of that screen to your cellphone. More »
