Laptop concept with curved design – Video

  • Tweet
  • Email

Arc Computer has put together a concept design for a notebook computer that has a curved body. At first glance, it looks silly. At second glance, I could see how it could be useful. At third glance… it just looks silly again.

You can check out a few videos after the break, but here’s the general idea: By giving the computer a curved design, you can outfit it with an ergonomic keyboard and an OLED display that’s perfect for showing 3D content.

The concept device also has room for a touchscreen display in the center of the keyboard, which you could use as a touchpad and/or application launcher.

I don’t know if we’ll ever see this thing come to market — and honestly, if I was a betting man I’d put my money on no. But it’s certainly an interesting idea. You can find out more about Arc computers at curved-world.com.

    Gawd, I hate those curved keyboards. Also, what is the point of a 'bendable' display that you just 'pre-bent' on just one direction? If it bends would you want to have control over how little or how much…? Just sayin'

    On the table, it would have space to help keep it cool. On the lap, it might be easier to use.

    With flexible electronics and flexible OLED screens, I see this as totally doable. It breaks the mold for notebook computers. Perhaps it could lead to other shapes for computers? I think it has potential.
