Here's something that you could own in the possible near future - the Nokia Morph! This new phone of the future works using nanotechnology, allowing it to be bent and stretched, and it can even clean itself!
This ingenious device is a project created by the Nokia Research Center in collaboration with the Cambridge Nanoscience Centre in the UK. Here are some other nifty features this future phone could have:
- Built-in solar absorption that charges the device.
- The surface of the device is superhydrophobic - meaning it is extremely dirt-repellent, allowing it to clean itself.
- A transparent body that offers an entirely new aesthetic dimension.
- Integrated sensors that can allow us to learn more about the environment around us, for example telling us whether an apple has been washed clean.
- Newly-enabled flexible and transparent materials blend more seamlessly with the way we live - you could even wrap this phone around your wrist!
Unfortunately, this phone won't be on the market for a long time - its still in its research stages. But with these new advances in technology, who knows what the mobile phones of tomorrow could do, maybe even help do your work, or use laser beams to help open envelopes or repel alien invaders.
