1.INTRODUCTION
Laptops are continuously changing. From the compelling components, various applications
and thinner designs; to the memory storage, Wi-Fi capabilities and television viewing;
they’ve come a long way from the first bulky home computers, and evolved into a
fashionable trend.

Advancements in technology have led to more precise touch screens, longer range of
wireless connections, and more compact devices capable of streaming video and audio
while providing driving directions to any location within the network, simultaneously.

German designer, Evgeny Orkin thinks he has found the answer with his Roll top concept.
“The main goal was to combine the laptop monitor and graphic tablet into one gadget and
avoid additional accessories,” he explains. He continued to say that consumers have the
option to buy a computer and a graphic tablet with a touchscreen separately, but they are
not able to use them as one laptop.

1.1 About the Roll laptop:


It is a portable computer development concept for everyone who would like to have a
gadget from an aesthetic stand point alone. IT is a next generation concept laptop design
which is so different from standard laptops in shape and size. This laptop has 2 modes: full
function mode and notebook mode.

Roll laptop has a flexible screen rolled up like a tower. It has all features of a standard laptop
and any more. It is a conceptual computer that would have a screen rollable into bigger size,
or just like traditional newspaper which you could roll it up when not in use.

The rolltop would come with a flexible OLED touchscreen display. Once it’s fully rolled out,
it’d serve as a 13-inch laptop/tablet, or a 17-inch dedicated computer display. The device
would also come with a detachable hub with power adapter, a stylus and a couple of USB
ports.
This conceptual device shouldn’t be too far from realistic, as OLED technology is getting
matured, making one of these flexible screens would not be too difficult in the near future.
2. SPECIFICATION
This newly designed laptop uses flexible OLED display on the panel and keyboard.
 Uses flexible OLED display on the panel and keyboard
 It replaces the conventional physical keyboard so the 13" laptop transforms into the
graphics tablet with its 17" flat screen
 Its a new concept in notebook design with a flexible display
 The OLED-Display technology has a multi touch screen
 All computer utilities from power supply through the holding belt to an interactive
pen are integrated into this rolltop.

 The wireless station can recharge the PC which provides two USB ports for
connecting peripherals.

2.1 OLED Display:

The Rolltop laptop incorporates energy-efficient flexible OLED technology and a multi-
touchscreen. As you unroll it, you get a laptop with a 13-inch screen. Flattened out, it
becomes a graphics tablet for use with the enclosed stylus pen.

On the back the Rolltop laptop is a stand that can be pulled out into a 17-inch display for
viewing videos. A webcam, loudspeaker and power/data supply are included in the core
cylinder.
Imagine if you could roll up your laptop like a newspaper and open it when required, and
what if you could turn your laptop into a primary monitor if you wanted to play some
awesome video games.
Thanks to its OLED-Display technology and a multi touch screen, it can be used a laptop
while it weighs as much as mini notebook. It comes with a 13 inch screen while being used a
laptop and when being used as a monitor, you could get a cool 17 inches screen. Power
supply, multimedia integrated pen and even a holding belt are integrated in the ROLL TOP
and it certainly is an all-in-one gadget.

3. PHYSICAL FEATURES

Imagine a laptop so portable, you could roll it up like a yoga mat and carry it tucked under
your arm with an attached strap. This is the concept behind the Rolltop laptop.

3.1 Easy to Lock:
It is a very important feature of this roll laptop. It does not have flat structure like the
standard computers. So, it would be a challenge to lock it. As it has a cylindrical structure so
will roll from any high place like a table or desk and it may get damage.
To prevent it from any types of damages it is important to lock it. Taking this under
consideration there will be a lock system in its strap. So that it will be easy to lock it with any
rigid thing so that it will not roll out.

3.2 Easy to carry:


It has a new concept, with the support of Schlagheck-Design and the device comes with a
flexible display which can be rolled and carried wherever you want. This goes beyond the
traditional book like laptops which are cumbersome to say the least.
Thanks to its OLED-Display technology and a multi touch screen, it can be used a laptop
while it weighs as much as mini notebook. Power supply, multimedia integrated pen and
even a holding belt are integrated in the ROLL TOP and it certainly is an all-in-one gadget.

4. TECHNICAL FEATURES

4.1 USB:
Compared to USB outlets on traditional laptops , those are more accessible and less
cluttered.

4.2 Keyboard:
The Ergonomic keyboard is the form of an arc. it allows users to put their hands and arms in
a natural and comfortable position when typing.

4.3 E-mail mode:


It is for energy saving user can check emails and browse websites under this mode.

4.4 Video camera:


It is an add on to multimedia.

4.5 Full function mode:


It is for energy saving user can check emails and browse websites under this mode. Under
full function mode it can be used as normal laptop .

5. COOLING SYSTEM
Cooling is always an issue in traditional laptops. D-roll has an innovative cooling system
which is able to create air flow to cool the computer inside out. By taking advantage of air
circulation. The Cooling system can exhaust the heat from inside to outside efficiently.
6. APPLICATIONS

While the world awaits the launch of the Apple Tablet, a German company is already
thinking about a much more distant future. The Orkin Design developed the prototype of an
ultraportable notebook with foldable screen. Called Rolltop, the device promises to be the
face of computers in the future
You could carry your laptop like a newspaper by rolling it up, and making sure that you are
not burdened by heavy laptop bags. While this is still a concept, we had written about the
cool Microsoft Courier Tablet which comes with dual screens. You could also read about
Cintiq, which allows you to write and draw better than with the help of pen and paper.
Well wrapped. German company takes seriously the concept of portable computer and
develops a project that aims to be the notebook of the future. The fact that computers are
becoming smaller and more powerful, but still cannot do much with them, especially when
it comes to mobility. Although small, all you can do, so far, is to raise the lid, type in key
properties and close the lid. The Rolltop it is still a laptop, however, it goes much further.

7. ADVANTAGES

One, the Rolltop combines the laptop, monitor and graphic tables without any problem
(such as small display in monitor modus or fold on screen in graphic tablet modus).
Secondly, the Rolltop is an all-in-one gadget that integrates the power supply, loud speaker,
laptop bag and mouse into one. You don’t have to carry extra accessories.
Lastly, due to the new available technology, the design is very compact and possesses a
completely new outlook.

7.1 Lightweight and flexible:


OLED displays can be fabricated on flexible plastic substrates leading to the possible
fabrication of flexible organic light-emitting diodes for other new applications, such as roll-
up displays embedded in fabrics or clothing. Further, plastic substrates are shatter resistant,
unlike glass displays used in LCD devices.

7.2 Wider viewing angles:


OLEDs can enable a greater artificial contrast ratio (both dynamic range and static,
measured in purely dark conditions) and a wider viewing angle.

7.3 Better power efficiency:


LCDs filter the light emitted from a backlight, allowing a small fraction of light through. So,
they cannot show true black. However, an inactive OLED element does not produce light or
consume power, thus allowing true blacks. This allows electronics potentially to be
manufactured more cheaply, but, first, a larger production scale is needed, because OLEDs
still somewhat are niche products.

7.4 Response time:


OLEDs also have a much faster response time than an LCD. Using response time
compensation technologies, the fastest modern LCDs can reach as low as 1ms response
times for their fastest color transition and are capable of refresh frequencies as high as 144
Hz.

8. CONCLUSION

Besides leading to an extreme the concept of portable computer, the Rolltop succeeded in
reuniting two of the largest consumer dreams of geeks on call: netbooks, objects of desire
of any User who want to stay connected and up to date with new technology and tablets,
even more famous after rumors of the launch of Apple Tablet.
Thus, the folding notebook lets mobile fans delight in a notebook with touch-sensitive keys
or a tablet for photo editing or performing more complex tasks. To use one of two devices,
simply unroll the screen completely, in the case of the tablet, or bend it 90 degrees to enter
text or surf the web with a 100% touchscreen notebook.
To close the package dreams of consumption, it also lets you view videos or photos like a
portable television. The screen has a support on the back. With this, you can leave it up and
watch a movie while waiting for an email from your boss.
