    Have you ever found yourself wandering aimlessly in an unfamiliar part of the city having to ask people for directions? It happens more often than we would like that we find ourselves taking a wrong turn, and taking twice as long to find our way back. We present you this nice tool, basically a wireless projector, that will be very handy in the future world.

    It’s called Maptor, and it’s a design concept from Jin-Sun Park and Seon-keun Park. Basically, you wear this wireless projector on a lanyard or maybe even as a keychain or beltclip, and when you need to see your map, you press a button, and  your map is projected onto whatever nearby surface is handy.

    Another great feature is that Maptor has a GPS included, so when you look at the map there will be a big red arrow on the map that points to your current location. Using the easy, push-button interface, one can easily enlarge or shrink the overall map size as well as zoom in and out as needed. Maps can be downloaded wirelessly via a Bluetooth connection.

    Since it’s a concept only, it’s not available commercially, but it will sure enough wait us in the future…
