Brix, Real Multimedia Phone




What if you could combine mobile phones (lego-stylee) to get more screen real estate? Well, then you'd have Seok won Hong's Brix.

First and foremost, Brix is a phone. The entire surface is a touchscreen, even void of a receiver. There is no bezel at all so you really get 100% screen real estate on the front. You have all your personal multimedia functions just like any other phone but here's where it gets interesting. By stringing together multiple Brix, you expand the screen real estate. Suddenly video is bigger. A temporary virtual shared folder is created to merge content between the devices until they're disconnected or one device can be designated as the media hub and interface. The awesome thing is the ability to endlessly string together as many Brix as you want. You can easily go from a small media player to a big screen TV. Throw in an external audio jack, DVR functions, GPS and we have a wonder device - like for real.




BRIX multimedia phone concept aims to bring not only people together, but more importantly, their handsets as well...literally. The 1:2 ratio makes it easy to combine a number of BRIX units to create a much larger screen for all to watch and enjoy. This works out especially awesome for overcrowded sports bars. Get enough BRIX buddies together to snag the best seat in the house!
