Are you a robot savvy techie? Do you think you need automation in projecting images onto your desk, wall or books? Here is a solution for you. LuminAR is a robot that has a small Pico-projector attached. The device is capable of moving automatically around your desk space and can project images on to your desk, wall or books.

This project has been rolled out of the prestigious MIT and it reinvents the traditional incandescent bulb and desk lamp, evolving them into a new category of robotic, digital information devices.

Coming to the features of this display unit let us enumerate some key characteristics:

  • The Pico-projector part of the robot functions just like a regular lamp. You can put it in a regular lamp holder.
  • However in your traditional lamp holder you don’t get automated robotic movement which might suit some people.
  • The system uses a gestural user interface.
  • It is capable of blending computer content with your workspace.
  • To make sure the unit is always in focus the use of a laser projector has been made. It can always stay at the right focus regardless of how far the surface is away.
