Apparently everyone has seen it. onen fan render of the phone iPhone, which was able to transform into a full OS X desktop with a holographic keyboard in seconds. Although iPhone The 5s, with its 64-bit processor, isn't very far from desktop performance, but it's still pretty big sci-fi, especially if we take into account the aforementioned holographic keyboard and a projector that would project the image onto the wall. But what if it's not the music of the distant future?
Spoločnosť Apple because it received a new patent that describes a device operating on a very similar principle, and our editors think that, given the requirements, it could be a possible future generation Mac mini or a legendary television Apple HDTV in incredible form. The patent from 2008 describes a relatively small computer that would consist of only one box without the need to connect a monitor. Apple he refers to this box as an intelligent projector, because inside it, in addition to standard componentov also contains important computer components and it even has a DVD drive. However, the presence of mechanics is justified by the fact that Apple he applied for this patent 5 years ago, when it was still a common thing. In terms of performance, this device could be equaled MacBooku or a cheaper desktop, while thanks to the projector, each user could choose the screen size they want.
The hybrid device could be configured as needed, so that if the user simply wanted to watch movies, the device would turn off the computeronenty and poneit would leave only the DVD drive active, into which the user could insert a movie disc. In addition, another attractive feature is derived from this ability. Apparently, this projector can be equipped with its own battery and it would be possible to take it anywhere with you, for example on vacation to a hotel. Apple here he also describes the presence of sensors that would detect the distance of the device from the wall and would be able to adapt the pixel density and resolution accordingly. This is undoubtedly an interesting piece of technology, and given earlier speculations, it is not out of the question that the mystical TV Apple HDTV that he had Apple released in 2011, 2012 and also in 2013, will in fact be just such a device that would be able to combine the capabilities of today's Apple TV and projector, thanks to which all users would get 4K resolution regardless of the diagonal.
