The Nokia Morph is a concept mobile phone created by Finnish company Nokia in collaboration with the University of Cambridge in Great Britain and is based on nanotechnology. The project was postponed indefinitely due to the sale of Nokia’s mobile phone division. Launched along with the Museum of Modern Art “Design and the Elastic Mind” exposition, the Nokia Morph concept device is a bridge between very advanced technology and its possible benefits for end users. This device was the product of a joint study into the future of mobile phones by the Nokia Research Center (NRC) in collaboration with the Cambridge Nanoscience Center (United Kingdom) and represents nanoscale technology that could potentially create a world of radically different devices that open a completely new spectrum of possibilities. According to Bob Iannucci, Nokia's chief technology officer, the "Nokia Research Center is looking at ways to reinvent the form and function of mobile devices... The Morph concept shows what might be possible." The device, which is non-functional, is intended to provide a conceptual showcase for future applications of nanotechnology in the realm of consumer electronics. It was planned to be a flexible phone that could be both stretched and folded into numerous shapes, and, in this way, it could comfortably carry out its many functions: it could convert into a panel large enough to view high quality videos, fold up to fit into small pockets, and bend to be worn around the wrist or held up to the face. Another interesting aspect of the device is that it would clean itself and be semi-transparent, allowing the device to be see-through yet functional. Furthermore, it would have many extra functions that would contribute to making this device look like something out of a science-fiction movie. Some of these functions include the ability to analyze the air near food or other elements to verify that they are in good condition or to take different colors to adjust the outfit of the user in order to convert it into a popular style. In conclusion, the Nokia Morph is a very ambitious project. This device seems to have potential for a new revolution in cell phone technology. Nokia released a computer-generated video demonstrating the capabilities the Morph might have if it were a real mobile phone. The manufacturer believed that some of the device's imagined features could appear in high-end devices by 2015. Characteristics New configuration
