Lenovo Envisions Future with Transparent PCs and Smartphones That Wrap Around the Wrist

During the Mobile World Congress 2024 held in Barcelona, Lenovo introduced two innovative and intriguing concepts, with the ThinkBook Transparent Display Laptop taking the center stage. This trailblazing gadget comes with an awe-inspiring 17.3-inch transparent Micro-LED display – a feature that is set to redefine the way users engage with and generate content on their PCs. The laptop’s standout features include its expansive borderless screen complemented by a transparent keyboard and a footpad design that seemingly floats, bestowing the device with a cutting-edge look and taking user experience to unprecedented heights. Its most groundbreaking feature, however, is its capacity to smartly blend the virtual world with the real one. Leveraging state-of-the-art artificial intelligence (AI)-generated content technology, the transparent display ushers in never-before-seen opportunities for collaboration and productivity, enabling users to interact with tangible objects and superimpose digital information, thereby creating unique content.

The laptop’s transparency not only helps it seamlessly merge with its environment but also paves the way for new dimensions of creativity. Users can alternate between the keyboard and display using a dedicated pen, capitalizing on the power of AI to engage with data and applications in entirely innovative manners. This concept presents not only a futuristic perspective on the use of AI in PCs but also aims to bring together the digital and physical worlds in a manner that could drastically enhance user experience. Alongside the ThinkBook Transparent Display Laptop, Lenovo and Motorola also unveiled an adaptive display concept for smartphones that can bend and morph into various shapes based on user requirements. This groundbreaking innovation builds on Lenovo’s prior research into the realm of foldable devices and rollable PC concepts.
