Wall-mountable computers could be better choice, if you have a tiny apartment that has limited space. The Originatic’s wall-mountable computer that was displayed at CES in January this year, has now been awarded a new patent.
The Originatic’s wall-mountable computer is being marketed by Smart Leaf. The wall-mounted design comes with a fold-out keyboard, which can be folded up for storage while it’s not in use. The computer itself is also switchable between a desktop and a laptop mode, by little changes in position.
This wall-mounted computer can be used as a kiosk as well, as it occupies no space. But it’s little more costly than an average computer, costs $1,982, comes with pretty impressive features including a touchscreen display, webcam, WiFi, scratch resistance, splash-proofing, keyboard lock, and power lock etc. And the most interesting is it’s got a built-in TV tuner which allows you to tune into TV signals, allowing it to be used like an HDTV on your wall. But there is no info whether the graphics card and display are HD-capable.
Currently, the SmartLeaf wall-mounted PC has got 7 active patents and is pending for 17 in about 12 countries. Apparently, this wall-mounted computer is best used in places like hotels, hospitals etc to allow people to look for information easily.
