Kinetic Powered Foldable Cellphone

foldphone-ed01 Kinetic Powered Foldable Cellphone

Kyocera EOS is an interesting cell phone that would appeal to those who are concerned with good looks and green technology at the same time. It is usually difficult to find both at the same time. The cell phone uses kinetic energy and can open up like a wallet.

It was designed by Susan Mckinney and comes with a soft, semi-rigid polymer skin and also OLED display. It can be folded for normal calls and when you unfold it, it shows an awesome wide screen. Thanks to an array of tiny piezoelectric generators, the cell phone creates more electric energy as you use it by converting the kinetic energy.

Samsung and LG may come to collaborate with this cell phone designer and we may soon see a phone that is powered by human kinetic energy. There is no information about the price but it may be available when people get to its sometime later.
