Sony today started rolling out Xperia Touch Android projector with multi-touch that turns any surface into a 23-inch HD touchscreen. It was introduced at the MWC 2017 in Barcelona earlier this year and is capable of beaming a horizontal or vertical image using Sony’s SXRD projection display technology.
This touch on the virtual image is made possible through a combination of Infrared light and real-time detection via its built-in camera, at a rate of 60 frames-per-second. It provides real-time weather information, a memo board, calendar access and a Skype portal for video chat.
