This mysterious bending recently appeared in the Tech channel ot China's Youku video sharing site. The video shows what seems to be a prototype/pre production that allow the user to zoom in and out by literally bending the screen!
The screen in the video seems to bend a fair amount without very little effort allowing the unknown o.s to zoom in on what seems to be Google Earth.
The idea seems very novel and might work well on a games device, but we can't see the technology making it in to a tablet type device anytime soon for a number of reasons:
- Someone will bend it too far and it will break!
- Check out how much light is reflecting on that screen when it's bent! It would be pretty difficult to see what you were zooming in on!
- The internal components such as the battery would need to bend.
nice novelty though! You can watch the video after the jump.
