The Nokia Morph is a concept mobile phone created by Finnish company Nokia in collaboration with the University of Cambridge in Great Britain and is based on nanotechnology. The project was postponed indefinitely due to the sale of Nokia’s mobile phone division.
Launched along with the Museum of Modern Art “Design and the Elastic Mind” exposition, the device was the product of a joint study into the future of mobile phones by the Nokia Research Center (NRC) in collaboration with the Cambridge Nanoscience Center (United Kingdom).[1] According to Bob Iannucci, Nokia's chief technology officer, the "Nokia Research Center is looking at ways to reinvent the form and function of mobile devices... The Morph concept shows what might be possible."[2]
The magazine WIRED published a satirical article criticizing the lack of practical uses for such a design, and instead suggests it to be used as a bottle opener.[3]
Nokia released a computer-generated video demonstrating the capabilities the Morph might have if it were a real mobile phone.[4] The manufacturer believed that some of the device's imagined features could appear in high-end devices by 2015.[2]
