Texas Instruments and others have announced mini- (or pico) projectors, which (either as stand-alone devices or built-in to handsets) are soon to be available, in other words anyone will be able to project anything anywhere. However it seems that not everyone is quite so excited about this, with some folks now even warning about a number of potential dangers. One of those naysayers is Future Laboratory founder Martin Raymond, who told BBC that while the projectors (likely to be used primarily in cellphones) are "appealing initially," he has concerns about the devices causing "visual pollution," adding that there could be "inappropriate showing of things that maybe other people shouldn't be seeing". Needless to say, he also foresees new laws and legislation controlling the use of the technology. Currently we don’t know how reasonable these scruples are, or how law will take into consideration new technologies. One thing is for sure: mini projectors will be on the market soon.
