Apple Gets Patent For Various Projection Systems And Methods

on 03/16/2010, filed in Home > Apple

While it seems that the previous “built-in projector for the iPad” rumor didn’t become reality, it’s still worth noting that Apple has been granted a patent for a projector related application. In the patent filing, it’s stated that a projector could not only be fit into an iPhone or MacBook, but also other devices such as an Airport Express. Such a product would be able to function as a router, as well as a wireless hub, getting projector video feeds from other devices over the network. This certainly seems like an interesting idea to be mass produced, after all, getting rid of cables related to projectors would make setting up presentations so much easier, wouldn’t it?

Apple Inc: Apple Inc was founded in 1976 by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne as a computer company wich is often credited to have initiated personal computing. After a meteoric rise in the 80s, Apple had lost the personal computing battle against Microsoft and others in the 90s. But in the late 90s and early 2000s, the company came back to profitability by focusing on less products and started using industry-standard components. Apple's largest business is now in the smartphone space, with the iPhone representing more than half of the revenues and an even larger part of the profits.
