Pocket Projector coming
Interesting… ok, now I’m curious
So we can await the technical implementation details but regardless we know the laws of physics.
LCD screens cause heat per pixel and spread that heat over the whole screen, so it is inherently able to be room-temperature passive cooling.
These laser projectors produce all of the light in one central location so it inevitably has to be either dimmer or active cooling and then its noise coming from something which is also meant to make sound.
Looks interesting, even moire interesting will be the starting price , especially as the normal Nebula is $600 and the TV replacement version (which is still pending?) was tagged at $3000
hot damn, all these teasers
40% Early Bid offer = please take version 1 with its bugs and flaws we had not spotted, and then get it months later with less bugs for less cost.
Cynical dialled to 11
I like version 1 asap, as then it means version 3 comes asap.
Nigel and Rob Reiner AKA Meathead gotta love spinal tap
I’ve been waiting for a good company to make a solid reasonably priced pocket projector
im interested in the quality as well. could make nice travel projector
i’ll beta test the hell out of this thing
Interesting to see what they bring to the table. Looking forward to reading more about it, would be even better if I could test one out
I’m sure we’ll get the first crack at testing this projector.
How much will it be?
It’s RRP will be 4x its lowest ever price, the early-bird will be say 3x its lowest price, after a few months it will be 2x its lowest price and then around 6 months later it is its lowest price just before the successor with better XXX YYY ZZZ features. Then all the ones who bought it at 3x the price kick themselves but a lot of then buy the successor anyway, and then the 1 year old device is a spare, or sell it on ebay (say to me).
Batteries age and you’d not want an old one necessarily, but plenty of tech years old is otherwise perfectly decent.
I’m interested just for being interested’s sake, I don’t see the point of them. The pixels you get are the same as 7" tablet you can put a few inches from your face with some earphones. OR you want something far away for communal, then a $200 LCD with a Chromecast seems to work in in this house.
We have a $35 Chromecast, a $200 LCD, and various laptops and tablets of different ages. We don’t seem to have a problem to solve? What we missing?
I’d obviously take one for free and discover its uses. OR, a year from now, get one of these beauties for say $30.
