Today i got an amazing news..i thoug
ht should share with you guys....yea...bamboo made smartphones...ain't awesome na..
In a world's first, a 23-year-old
British student,Kieron Scott-Woodhouse, has designed a mobile phone made
from bamboo.The new smartphone, called 'ADzero', which is expected to
launch later this year, is made from organically grown bamboo that has
been treated to improve its durability.
The
phone, made by Kieron Scott-Woodhouse, from London, runs on Google's
Android operating system.Scott-Woodhouse, a full-time student on
Middlesex University's Product Design course, said he designed the
phone in his spare time because he was frustrated that so many existing
models looked similar to each other.
Middlesex
University said that a technology entrepreneur contacted him after
posting designs online.Weighing half as much as the iPhone, the new
device will also feature a 'ring flash' to make the illumination of
pictures taken with its camera more even.Made from four-year-old
organically grown bamboo, which has been specially treated to ensure
durability."Bamboo may seem like a strange material to use for a phone,
but it's actually extremely strong and very durable, perfect qualities
for this kind of application," the paper quoted Kieron-Scott, as
saying.
Initially
intended for the Chinese market, an enthusiastic reception in the UK
means that the phone will go on sale in design retailers later in
2012...so wait for that..:):P
