Nokia Nia Concept is a Robotic Communication Device

04/04/2009 22:38 par slaytane

Designer Sebastian Müller has caught a glimpse of the future, together with Nokia Research Center and created the Nokia Nia concept, a robotic communication device that’s very intuitive and handles all of your virtual interactions. Replacing your secretary, the device takes care of the user’s emails, text messages, calls and news.

Nokia Nia supports face recognition and provides services customized to its user’s needs, since it’s based on visual tags that increase the level of customization. This gadget will charge itself thanks to a “charging shelter”, but the main appeal of the concept is the ways you can interact with it: depending on your distance from the device, it’ll go from gesture control, to voice and touchscreen interaction.

When you enter touchscreen mode, you’ll be able to use this “robot” like a tablet PC. Nia is basically a hybrid between a robot, a PC, a phone and a RSS system.

Nokia Ultra Low Touch Concept Phone

Well, touchscreen had met low end before, but never under Nokia branding. The Finns only have a high end device (the N97) and a music phone that can be placed on the borderline between high end and mid end, both featuring a touchscreen. But what about low end phones packing such displays?

Here’s the so-called “Nokia Ultra Low Touch” concept, a pretty basic handset with a touchscreen on board.

Notice the presence of a flashlight function and a design that reminds me of Nokia 5800 XpressMusic, but somewhat on the “iPod nano” side of things. Real or fake?
