WEATHER PHONE

Seunghan Song created a concept mobile phone dubbed the Window Phone and it was
found out that this device can transform its look, like a window that reflects the outside weather.
Window is a thin and transparent plastic sheet, basically, as you can see in the images below.

The handset will remain clear when the day is sunny, or it shows drips of water and look
humid if it’s a rainy day. Snowy days will make it look foggy and frozen. Of course, the device
is all about its cool touch screen and it also supports handwriting recognition. You can also draw
and write text messages on this “sheet”, that’ll also recognize the symbols you draw and maybe
even gestures.
 The Windows Weather Phone uses OLED technology- this allows its transparency
without sacrificing technological power. Much like other phones, this phone is able to perform a
variety of features such as calling, texting, videos, music and others. Additional to these features,
its transparency allows it to perform a unique feature- it can completely mimic weather outside.
On a rainy day, the phone would appear to be filled with raindrops, while on a sunny day the
phone would appear bright. Although not a particularly useful feature, it’s enjoyable to
experiment around with. The Weather Phone also contains text recognition software. To initiate
text recognition simply blow onto the screen- the phone recognizes the change in air pressure
and responds.

The Windows Weather Phone has no buttons- all functions are controlled through the
touch screen. It also allows interaction with the actual weather- for example it allows writing and
drawing on a foggy screen- much like how you would draw on a misty window. Although not
planned to be commercially sold soon, its sleek design and unique features promises a bright
future.
