Maneuverable unmanned aerial vehicle will be able to work almost anywhere.
Japanese company Docomo has developed a spherical led screen. It has a resolution of 144×136, but the main feature — a spherical display capable of flying.
The Docomo said that it is the first device of its kind. The image is broadcast during the flight of the drone, which is embedded in a spherical design.
The device must be replaced by a advertising blimps that fly over stadiums, shopping malls and other public places. The creators say that their “ecranele”, in addition to advertisers, will become popular among the organizers of light show and concerts.
The screen is a hollow frame in the shape of a sphere. On the edges of the frame is 8 led strips glued down. It does not display in the traditional sense.
The image is obtained by rotation of the frame around the drone, this creates the illusion of a solid and continuous image. This screen can display both static and dynamic picture. In Docomo say that giving a start to a new direction in the market of drones.
Maneuverable unmanned aerial vehicle will be able to work virtually anywhere, the company says. In concert halls, sports arenas, regardless of whether or not a roof over your head.
The sphere is large enough and is lightweight, so does not interfere with the normal functioning of the drone. The sphere diameter is 88 cm, the total weight is 3.4 kg. Docomo wants to commercialize the development by 2019. In case of success, “ekranoplane” will broadcast advertisement, news and other videos.
