Nokia Morph Phone

by Heather McLaughlin

Can you image a mobile phone that you can mold into whatever shape you like? The Nokia Morph is the phone that could let you do exactly that.

The Nokia Morph was developed by the Nokia Research Center (NRC) and the University of Cambridge in the UK.

The concept mobile phone will be on display at the “Design and the Elastic Mind” exhibition, running until May 12, 2008, at The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.

This flexible phone can even be worn on your wrist!

Dr. Tapani Ryhanen, Head of the NRC Cambridge UK laboratory, Nokia, commented: “We hope that this combination of art and science will showcase the potential of nanoscience to a wider audience. The research we are carrying out is fundamental to this as we seek a safe and controlled way to develop and use new materials.”
