Everybody is sizing down. A projector now only measures a mere 1.3 inch. The Texas Instrument’s new Pico DLP projector, which is so small that you can have it installed at the bottom of your cellphone. This concept is really handy especially for sales and marketing guys, those who always need to bring along a projector and a laptop for some powerpoint or video presentation of their products to their customers. Having a pico projector fixed to a smartphone also means that you don’t even need to carry a laptop and a normal size projector, which add up at least few KGs of weight on you.

The Pico projector measures mere 1.3″, comes with a trio of lasers, a DLP chip that is capable of delivering widescreen TV images in DVD-quality images, and a power supply. Having it with your smartphone also allows you to have any movie session anytime. Just find a big enough space and switch off the light, then you can enjoy your movie there. There is no word yet for the availability and price.

The ExPlay’s tiny projector is bigger in size than the Pico Projector, as you can simply tell by its name, which it’s called oio nano projector. This projector gives high quality, bright image and another specialty is this projector is always in focus, which allows it to be used anywhere. But its small size also affects its projected image, which can only produce an image about the size of a large monitor. With such a small image size, it wouldn’t be nice to use it for your home theatre or large audience. Anyway, the intention behind for this projector is to give you a handy way to view content on a mobile device, which the screen is relatively small. This projector is targeted to be released in 2008.
