If you’ve been hankering after a smartphone with a built-in projector, Lenovo may well have you covered. At its TechWorld conference in Beijing today, the Chinese company unveiled a smartphone concept that included a built-in laser projector that can turn any flat surface into a keyboard that you can type on.

The Lenovo Smart Cast has a couple of other neat tricks up its sleeve, the first one being the ability to play a virtual musical keyboard, where you can create music in real-time with no discernible lag. You can even project the image of your favourite game on to a surface and control the game by swiping on the projected image. The smartphone recognises your gestures and converts them into commands.

The second nifty feature is that by rotating the projector and laying it flat on a table, for example, you can display your media content onto a nearby wall.

Naturally, being a concept, it’s unclear whether Lenovo will ever put the Smart Cast smartphone into production, but it is a sign that the Chinese company is attempting to think outside of the box in terms of smartphone development, much like it does with its range of laptops.
