Samsung's Folding Screen Cellular phone

Samsung’s Folding Screen Cellular phone

I am not certain if Samsung has created an industry first with a folding screen cellular phone, because I am most certain that I have heard of this application being tried out before on some underdeveloped concept phone of some type. I’ve always wondered what mobile phone company was going to perfect the folding screen tech first, and how much money they would make off of it.
The FPD International 2008 tech conference was host to the first (but probably not first ever) folding cell phone. This phone is brought to you by our friends at Samsung, who love to bring us new display technology like the Virtual Window Display and SkyV Virtual Skylight.
Yes, the folding screen is a flexible OLED developed by Samsung SDI, and it is clearly positioned to revolutionize the world of mobile phones as we know it. No more running applications on a tiny screen anymore. Now you will have a display that will be at least one fourth the size of your normal computer screen.

The amaging flying dutch car

If you hate being stuck in traffic jams, don’t worry, because the new flying car PAL-V is on it way. This Dutch project is a hybrid 3-wheel vehicle that can fly as a gyrocopter and also be driven as a regular car, or to be more precise, like a motorcycle.
When riding on the road, the PAL-V will use the patented technology Dynamic Vehicle Control (DVC™), originally designed for the Carver One, that should make tilting in corners a piece of cake. The flying apparatus is based on the original idea for the “autogiro”, developed in 1923 by Juan de la Cierva, and will have the capability to land practically anywhere. Combining the best of both worlds, the PAL-V ONE will use a foldable rotor fixed on the roof, a foldable propeller, and a slidable tail. The motor used for driving is the same that will power the propeller. The same controls are used in both flying and driving mode, but with different functionalities between them.
The PAL-V will fly only under 4,000 feet and will use a highly fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly engine that can run on petrol, but also on biodiesel or bio-ethanol. The vehicle will reach up to 200 km/h both on land an in the air.Flying and riding with the PAL-V will be a breeze, and I can’t wait to get my hands on one of those.
