'nesting pc virtual tablet' by sono mocci
a concept by japanese-born, italy-based designer sono mocci, 'nesting pc virtual tablet' is
a combination tablet and data visualization interface with automatic battery charging and
data syncing. phones, memory cards, CDs, USB ports, and I/O cables can be plugged
directly into the device, where they will show up as images on the touchscreen for easy
manipulation and access. the design was shortlisted from over 1000 concepts in our
recent designboom competition 'a life with future computing', organized in collaboration with FUJITSU.
the 13-inch concept tablet features a dedicated dock for mobile phones.
when inserted, a visualization of the phone onscreen works in the same manner as
would the device itself, permitting dialing, calling, texting, and other use. the loading of disk media
or flash drives offers a similar intuitive functionality. integrated charging eliminates the need for
AC or outlet-specific adapters for these kinds of devices.
