Fold-up Smartphone Screens

Fold-up Smartphone Screens

Opportunity

The main two mobiles in the world are: tablets and smartphones. Smartphones are good for texting and talking, while tablets are good for reading magazines and books, typing long messages, looking at pictures, and surfing the Web. Engineers and scientists have long been trying to create a compact and portable device that can be used for reading as well as texting or online communication. 

Solution

Fold up smartphone screens that transform from a smartphone into a tablet. This mechanism is done through what is referred to as “artificial muscle”, patented by Samsung, which allows the screen to be bent without breaking. This bimodality in device allows for the user to maximize their phone’s screen for reading and minimize it for texting whenever needed.
