Toshiba’s Media Server Concept Is Uber-Cool

toshiba-media-server-concept-468 Toshibas Media Server Concept Is Uber-Cool

Dreams are what inventions and concepts are all about. If you had dreamed ever if a TV, a telephone and a media server could interact with each other, Toshiba seems to have the answer. However, it still is in a concept stage and will take a while for it to materialize.

In this new system, a media server will automatically download media files from the cellphone just when the user drops near the field communication or NFC. Later, the media files can be projected on a wireless HD 1080p TV. However, this being a concept, I won’t be able to swear by it. I could only swear that Toshiba always manages to pull it off, whatever the concept is, and most of its products are great success.

It would be interesting to see a product that lets all these three gadgets interact with one another and finally have a synthesized result.

With quite a unique design they can be a sure shot attention grabber in a living room. They are designed by the minds at NACSound and boast to offer stereophonic sound from a single speaker with the help of an acoustic reflector suspended in the center. (What’s new?)
