NEC Concept Devices

flacon01.jpgNEC has published some concept illustrations and text about the future of ubiquitous networking devices.

For example, the "flacon," pictured here, is a bottle for storing and displaying images:

We already have the means to store a massive amount of images in our various devices, so many that we cannot possibly see them all in a lifetime. "flacon" offers the ways to casually enjoy such a volume of visuals. The images emerge on an inorganic electroluminescent display. Among them, images selected according to anniversaries and the user’s emotions are projected outward through a projector.
Pretty cool.
