Samsung which diagnoses - at Mobile Beat 2013 (video)

Published:

At the MobileBeat 2013 conference held in San Francisco, Samsung in the person of Young Sohn played a strong card showing that the Korean manufacturer does not stand in place and also thinks about the near future of smartphones.

The conceptual model of Samsung doesn't rather cure, but diagnoses medical condition. Young Sohn CEO of Samsung opened the conference in San Francisco, presenting the concept of multi-function smartphone that goes beyond the features available today in communication devices. Technology is based on a flexible screen that allows to bend like a notebook without breaking at an angle, on a touch screen interface that goes beyond the mere control of the smartphone - it's apparently one of the ideas of Samsung on the smartphones image in the near future.

Samsung is already producing flexible displays. Very interesting, though known, is the idea of a folding phone, I wonder if in fact it is possible to use mechanically forced polarization to obtain a change of colours on such a thin display. First of all, there are a few mechanical problems, but also - please pay attention to the thickness of the whole device - those related to general construction technology even more miniaturized components - including the camera module, rather, because physics cannot be changed. A thin non-invasive diagnostic sensor that can measure blood pressure, pulse, sweat, the electrical activity or even perform a radio scan of tissues and send the results to a smartphone - it seems to be a quite likely device in the future.

The vision of Samsung does not provide instant fulfillment. Young Sohn was to provide more suggestions for the direction in which the industry will grow over the next 10 years. - He was to speak in the debate on how many aspects of human life will be annexed by mobile devices, as well as probably prove the competition that the Korean giant is not sleeping because of economic success and more like clones models of Samsung smartphones have a chance for a quick transformation.
