Here is how Smartphones Will Shape Our Future!

Technology continues to make amazing advances in this field. A slightly better camera! A slightly brighter screen! Rose gold phones! etc. There isn’t any doubt that the amazingly designed features and unique capabilities shall make the future smartphone exceedingly smarter. There has always been advancement in the mobile technology. Everyday new features are added into the every upcoming mobiles to offer an amazing experience to the customers. Here are some of the amazing features that shall change the future of smartphones and human lifestyle.

Futuristic Trends in Smartphones

Augmented Reality

Smartphones can serve as one of the best platforms for AR to work. You can get the latest information without calling and asking anyone or searching online before heading out of Wi-Fi coverage. Most AR apps utilize some form of Global Positioning System (GPS) to facilitate location searches. This feature is likely to develop further because of its potential. It seems that the primary limiting factor is the limited recognition accuracy for ‘live’ views when we point our camera lens at places, buildings or even people. For AR to work seamlessly and reliably, the technology for recognizing places, things or people must be of a certain standard.

Bendable / Stretchable Screens

The Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge has already pushed the possibilities of smartphone screens. It comes with a dual-curved display that wraps around both the edges of the device. It won’t be wrong to say that flexible screens are making their way in the smartphone world. All thanks to the OLED tech that shall bring to us large-screen smartphones while maintaining a pocket-able size. Screens can be folded and unfolded. With such physical flexibility, there will be a time when some companies even have plans on make wearable smartphones. For instance, Nokia’s Morph offers users the option of wearing the device as a wristwatch and unfold it to use as a typical handset.

D Screens & Holograms

Apple’s ‘Retina Display’ provides a resolution that is even sharper than what a human eye can perceive. This makes us clear that Smartphones may have already reached the peak for their screen resolution. Well if you still want more major mobile conglomerates are now moving from 2D future-features-smart-phones to 3D future-features-smart-phone screens. Currently, we already have a couple of 3D smartphones in the market, such as the LG Optimus 3D, the Motorola MT810 as well as the very first Samsung AMOLED 3D. So, the next thing after these 3D phones could possibly be holographic projections. These will be a combination of 3D future-features-smart-phones and projections from the smartphone. 3D displays can be integrated with elements of movements when it comes to user interactions with the phone. For instance, you can simply resize your photos by using your hands. You will be able to ‘pull’ or ‘compress’ the holographic photos that appear in front of you. Not just this but you can even move objects by ‘grabbing’ them from one place to another, etc.

In-Built Projector

How about having a large screen for watching movies and playing games? If flexible screens are not enough why not integrate a projector within? In 2010, Samsung Galaxy Beam featured a built-in DLP (Digital Light Projection) WVGA projector that is able to project future-features-smart-phones. So your phone can simply turn into an interactive gaming console without a need for a TV screen. You can use your body or your voice to control the projector instead of using a physical remote button. Although you might face high battery drainage and luminance problem, with better technology these issues would be addressed in time, making projectors a part of a new experience.

Iris scanner Security

After fingerprint scanner mobiles, Iris scanner smartphones will add a handy new layer of biometric security. The phone’s front-facing camera will combine with an infra-red sensor to capture your retina. Although this isn’t an exactly new tech, Samsung Galaxy Note 7 (rolled back due to the explosion fiasco) had already incorporated this feature to keep your device, data, and personal information safe. So, now you don’t need to worry about the prying eyes that can see your password.
