Samsung has always been one of the most risky companies in the world of smartwatches. One of the first models that was launched on the market and was for sale in many countries offered us a James Bond-style camera, an abandoned feature in the company's later model. It was a risky gamble that did not attract public attention.
Subsequently, the Korean firm has launched several quite interesting models on the market, among which the Gear S2 stands out, a smartwatch based on Tizen and that allows us to manage the different menu options through the crown. It seems that the firm has finally hit the mark after many tests. But the firm continues to work in this sector.
The Korean-based form has just patented in the United States a smartwatch concept that would integrate a projector that would expand the size of the screen in our hand, and even sometimes it could also reflect the content of the screen on a wall. Apple's idea of moving the screen to the palm of the hand would allow us to interact with the device in a much easier way than before, especially for users whose fingers are too large for such a small screen.
This smartwatch would use a series of sensors to detect where the screen is being displayed, detecting the shape of the hand to adapt the interface to it and place the buttons that would allow us to interact with the device, so that if we open the hand we would obtain new interaction buttons as we can see in the images of the patent.
As a patent that it is, it does not mean that the company intends to launch this smartwatch on the marketIt is simply an idea that the firm has wanted to register to prevent other companies from developing it without its consent. As a smartwatch user for several years, I see an interesting idea about this new concept of smartwatch, something similar to that of some iPhone concepts that were launched a few years ago that integrated a projector that would show the keyboard and allow us to write in a more straightforward way. on our iPhone.
