Celluon Epic Bluetooth Mobile Projection Keyboard

Have you seen the commercial on TV that shows the girl in the cafe appearing to use a keyboard that is projected on to the top surface of the table she where is sitting? Well that is a real thing and it is called the Epic Mobile Projection Keyboard. It's from a Korean company called Celluon and it uses Bluetooth to attach to your device and then projects a keyboard onto a flat surface that you can use to type. It comes in a box that looks like this:

It's a small device that uses a lot of different technologies; Bluetooth to connect to your device (pc, tablet or phone), USB to charge, laser to project the image of the keyboard and Infrared to figure out what key you are pressing.

Remove it form the packing and on one side is the On/Off switch and the charging port (mini usb) and bluetooth sync button (which doesn't show up too well in this pic).

The other side has the laser, projector, and infrared sensor.

When you first unpack it, it has to be charged. Hook it to any usb port/charger and the red (charging) light comes on.

After a short wait the red light goes off and the green (charged) light comes on. It is now ready for use. Note: the directions say a fully charged unit will last for 120 minutes.

Once it is charged, you follow the simple (included) instructions to sync it to your bluetooth device, set it up and it's ready to go.

The unit projects a near full sized keyboard to any flat surface. You can then practice for a while to get used to the new way of typing. The best surface seems to be flat, non-reflective and firm.

We set this up with an iPad and it worked great! The learning curve was pretty short and once we figured out the best kind of surface and the best way to orient, we were all successful in using this as a real keyboard.
I recommend this device.
