We’re all eagerly waiting to see the first pico-projector equipped mobile phones hitting the store shelves. Not many handset makers said we’ll see the first such devices start selling this year. However, Young Optics announced it is expecting to begin shipping its pico-projector by the end of second quarter or the beginning of the third quarter.
That sounds as a good news in my book. Finally we have a bit more specific time frame. Not that any handset makers has confirmed anything more than “we’re working on it” at this stage, but the way things are progressing maybe we’ll actually see the first models being (at least) announced and briefly demoed this year.
In case you care to know, Taiwan-based Young Optics is using Texas Instruments’ technology and LED lighting, which we’ve already seen demoed. Now the ball’s in handset makers’ court. Please folks make this happen. You know we want this desperately.
