Abstract

Smartphone or computer type device without screen or keyboard. The invention relates to an electronic device that can replace a computer and a smartphone. The Pen.AI is shaped like a pen, comprising: A camera for analyzing the context, scanning, analyzing movement and ambient light A transparent cone ending in a point, which coupled with the analysis of the camera image and the accelerometers allows the recognition of writing and drawing: the "input" A micro-video projector, at the base or at the top of the Pen.AI, to project the image: the "display" On the top of the Pen.AI a mini touchpad with pressure validation that acts as a computer mouse and fingerprint reader. On the sides two speakers, underneath a microphone, allowing by holding the Pen.AI close to the face to communicate as with a telephone with a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth mobile communication module.A multi-colored LED or a mini display on the top informs about the Pen.AI's status and errors. A replaceable battery is rechargeable via charging points. A hybrid artificial intelligence (onboard and online) allows dialogue with the user by voice (microphone and speakers), "typing" and "display".

Description

Title of the invention: PEN.AI

[0001] The present invention relates to an electronic device which can replace a computer and a smartphone [Fig.l].

[0002] The context: despite the miniaturization of electronic components, it is no longer possible to reduce the size of these digital devices due to the minimum size required for keyboards (for input) and screens (for display) to enable them to be functional.

[0003] The present invention is in the general form of a pen.

[0004] The “capture”: At the front, a transparent cone ending in a point allows you to write and draw virtually on all surfaces.

[0005] The cone is removable to be replaced by other accessories adapted to different projections.

[0006] Above this cone, a camera allows scanning, analyzing the ambient light, and the movement of PEN.AI coupled with

[0007] the integrated accelerometers.

[0008] The “display”: is produced by a micro-video projector (laser or not) at the base of the cone or top of the pen, which projects the image.

[0009] An optical lens, placed in front of the video projector, allows autofocus zoom.

[0010] On the top, a mini touchpad with pressure validation acts as a computer mouse and also as a fingerprint reader.

[0011] On the sides two speakers, below a microphone, allow, by wearing the PEN.AI close to the face, to communicate as with a telephone / smartphone thanks to the

[0012] integrated mobile communication module, 5G, Wifi and Bluetooth.

[0013] A multi-colored LED or a mini display on the top provides information on operating status, batteries, etc.

[0014] A replaceable battery is rechargeable via charging points under the device.

[0015] A hybrid artificial intelligence (onboard and online) allows dialogue with the user by voice (microphone and speakers), “input” and “display”
