Sharp develops VGA screen for Vodaphone - Sharp 904SH

March 24, 2006 – 6:27 pm

It seems to me that VGA monitors were a big thing for full size computers a few short years back. Now be prepared for a 480×640 VGA that has been developed by Sharp for Vodaphone.

The Sharp 904SH also has another cool feature: facial recognition. This security feature unlocks the phone when it successfully matches the user’s face to that registered in its memory, thus replacing the PIN or fingerprint authentication sometimes found in other phones. Should light be low and such identification not possible, the phone defaults to a PIN system. It’s nice to know that Sharp thought of that, or using the phone at nighttime could get very frustrating.

Incredible stuff. Called the Sharp 904SH, the product goes on sale in Japan in April.
