RollTop Technology

Its so boring to handle the heavy laptops…from one place to another with quite difficulty. But  with the rising era the Germany's Orkin Design proposes rolling up both devices into one ultra-portable package.  

Introduction:

Let us get introduced with the new latest technology which is ROLLTOP TECHNOLOGY. Notebooks and tablets already offer pretty convenient computing on-the-go solutions. The Rolltop concept will take advantage of advances in flexible OLED and touchscreen technologies to create a cylinder-shaped laptop computer that can be rolled out to form a notebook, a tablet, or display monitor. Besides leading to an extreme the concept of  portable computer, the rolltop succeded in reuniting two of the largest consumer dreams of geek on calls: netbooks , objects of desire of any user who want to stay connected and up to date with new technology and tablets, even more famous after rumors of the launch of Apple Tablet.

How to use ??

Rather than carry around a notebook in a laptop bag, full to the brim with all manner of cables, the Rolltop concept proposes bringing everything together in a flat panel display that's wrapped around a central cylinder. The top of the column detaches and acts as a power plug while the carry strap doubles as a power cord (presumably some sort of battery technology is also included, although this has not been mentioned). The central column also contains speakers, a camera, USB ports, and a LAN port.

The main goal of this technology is to combine the laptop, monitor and the graphic tablet into one  gadget and avoid additional accessories. The Rolltop does not have a CD/DVD reader or floppy disc because they are obsolete.

After unlocking the catch, the user would roll out the Rolltop display like a mat and then either leave it flat for 17-inch tablet computing, or raise one end up for something resembling a notebook. The lower part of the screen is then used for keying on a virtual, onscreen keyboard while the upper part becomes a 13-inch display for viewing content. A pull-out support at the back also allows the flattened device to be used as a monitor-like display, and a stylus pen has been incorporated into the body of the panel. To close the package dream of consumption, it also lets us to view videos, or photos like a portable television. The screen has a support on the back. With this you can leave it up, and watch a movie while waiting for the email from your boss.

When rolled up, Rolltop will be 11 inches (28 cm) long and have a 3.26-inch (8.3-cm) diameter – and that's about all we can tell you. As it's a concept designed to be built in the future, some of the technology kinks are still being worked on, but Orkin has stated its intention to see this design through to an actual, real-world product. There are, of course, quite a number of technical hurdles to overcome before that happens and unfortunately the designers do little to shed light on how such difficulties will be dealt with, leaving us to speculate.

Future scope:

It requires no great stretch of the imagination to visualize the various technologies already used in dual-screen notebooks, all-in-one computers and cutting edge tablets being incorporated into the Rolltop. However, details on how the internal components like processors, memory, storage and graphics cards will be dealt with have not been forthcoming, so it looks like we're just going to have to wait until there is more substance to this project .So we can say that the Rolltop technology is a great boon to the present as well as the coming generation and may be in future it the recent developments in bendy screen technology might also make this device a current possibility.
