The device would then project a screen onto the users hand or arm which could be used instead of a touch screen on the watch itself. Many people feel that one of the biggest problems with smartwatches are\u00a0their minuscule touch-screens, and now it seems as though Samsung may have found the way forward.<\/p>\n<p>And it&#8217;s not only numbers and letters that will be projected, the screen offers dual-screen imaging which means you can look at two things at the same time, thanks to the projected screen (see below on the right).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10656\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.pricecheck.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Screen-Shot-2016-05-17-at-11.00.26-AM.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2016-05-17 at 11.00.26 AM\" width=\"583\" height=\"304\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Screen-Shot-2016-05-17-at-11.00.26-AM.png 1004w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Screen-Shot-2016-05-17-at-11.00.26-AM-300x157.png 300w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Screen-Shot-2016-05-17-at-11.00.26-AM-768x401.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 583px) 100vw, 583px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Smartwatches are becoming increasingly popular and innovative by the day, even though some may still feel they are unnecessary.
