Nokia Flexible Kinetic Device Shown at Nokia World 2011

Remember the [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
flexible concept from 3 years ago? Well, it’s only now that Nokia has
started moving to that direction, creating a flexible display device or
two, showcased during this week’s Nokia World 2011 event in London. The
result can be seen below:

This is the prototype Nokia Kinetic Device, that supports display
flexing on the vertical and horizontal axis. You can bend and twist the
screen to control the interface, for example bending the display to
yourself in order to select stuff or zoom in on pictures. If you’re
listening to music you can use the tactile area to navigate, stop or
play a song.

There’s still a long way to go till mass production, but at least
there’s a prototype to build upon. The curios thing here is that Nokia
was shy of detailing the screen technology, so this could mean it’s not
the flexible AMOLED we’ve seen on Samsung and Sony’s side for a while
now. The viewing angles are also pretty good when it comes to the Nokia
flexible concept phone.
