As a child, you must have played a game in which bits and pieces are to be placed together. This results in interesting shapes of different sizes and is a fun-filled activity. Bringing the same fun in the life of grown-ups is Kamil Izrailov in the form of Mobikom. The ingenious gadget is a conceptual cell phone and tablet computer clubbed in one.
Computing giants IBM have predicted that 3D hologram technology could be made available in cellphones in the coming five years. As that sounds, we’re still not convinced that it would support the kind of functionality that this particular futuristic cellphone imagines. The cellphone concept by designer Mac Funamizu is basically composed of two devices that interact with each other and provide a whole new dimension to both cellphone usage as well as cellphone technology.

Most cell phone concepts that we see out there these days are born out of the need to provide a new stylistic innovation in technology and function. But few of these concepts ever address the need to make existing technologies more accessible for people with disabilities. The Orbital Phone is one such concept that derives its form and function from the problems of a real life user who had lost the function of his dominant hand and was hence forced to use his other hand to operate his smartphone.
Most cellphones have joined the touchscreen bandwagon so once in a while it tickles me pink, to come across a QWERTY concept merged with the touchscreen option. The handy keyboard is placed to the right of the phone and it has a 30˚ slant to it.
Cellphones have become an essential part of our lives. They have become as important as oxygen and have shrunk the world even further. But, the question remains how important are they for children? Working parents are so preoccupied that they hardly get time to connect with their children. It’s hard to keep a check on them, while away from home. Birgitta Salim has come up with an intelligent solution in the form of Kokoro wearable cellphone, exclusively crafted for children.
