Concept Shows Display-less, Keyboardless Dell.

The Froot uses projectors and sensors to eliminate the need for a display or a keyboard. Mock ups of great products that might never come to pass are my favorite part of this job. Sure, it"s a little disappointing to know that I may never have a toaster like the one pictured but these concepts never fail to get me thinking about what the future might hold. Paulina Carlos" Froot concept (via Engadget) is no different. Supposedly designed for a Dell sustainable design contest, the case is made out of a biodegradable starch-based polymer and the computer utilizes projection and sensors for both monitor and keyboard. Pictured here in three garish colors because environmentally friendly doesn"t have to mean boring, folks.
