Floating Smartphone Concept






Talking about the future of cellphone technology, you’re wondering what’s so special about a phone that bears a similar design to most of the touchscreen phones today, it’s because there are magnets placed in specific areas, allowing the phone to float while it’s being charged.

When a call comes in, The magnets on the bottom of the cradle activate, forcing the phone to rotate.

Text and icon activation on the screen of the phone appear three-dimensional “due to an after-image effect.”

The similar rotation also occurs upon receiving a text message or your alarm clock rings.

This floating phone was created by In-oh Yoo and Sun-woong Oh for the Metatrend Institute.

Although it’s still not final but we are expecting this technology to get real with the iPhone 5.
