By the end of 2008 you may be able to buy small electronic devices such as cell phones that come complete with tiny video projectors in them thanks to 3M.
In the electronics world smaller is almost always better, but I doubt that many people considered that one day we might be able to carry a cell phone with an embedded video camera. The 3M company recently demonstrated a new prototype video projector that can be fitted into portable electronic devices. While the unit is not incredibly bright, it sounds as though it might be ideal for showing a stored video or other program to a small group of onlookers instead of having them view it on a tiny cell phone size LCD screen.
Other reports state that several electronics companies are interested in the technology and that cell phones with embedded video projectors might be available as soon as late 2008.
