MicroVision SHOWWX+ PicoP display engine
I decided to take a break on reporting on gaming gadgets, and focus on some other form of consumer electronics at the E3 gaming Expo. I always like seeing the latest in pico projectors, and I would have to say that the SHOWWX+ laser pico projector is one of the smallest that I have seen.
At a height of .55 inches and width of 2.36 inches, it is able to create an impressive image up to 100 inches in size, with WVGA resolution (848 x 480). According to the manual and what I saw at E3, it should “project on any surface, curved, moving or still, without having to focus or refocus”.
The battery is good for about 2 hours worth of use, and it is great for sharing videos, photos, and presentations in a 16:9 aspect ratio with a brightness of 15 lumens.
The SHOWWX+ is designed to work with all kinds of mobile devices, like the iPhone, iPod, or iPad. A VGA dock is sold separately, which should be good for laptops, netbooks, and the Macbook. It also has a composite adapter for other TV-out devices.
The SHOWWX+ Laser Pico Projector is currently available now, and I checked on Amazon. The current price is $329.00, and you can find out more information at the official site here.

These are pretty cool, since it uses lasers, the picture is always in focus, no matter what you project it on. It does require a rather dark room, after all it’s about the size of an iPod (which it can directly plug into).
