Getting video on a small screen is not a huge thing and it’s not new. But how about video on a screen that’s insanely small? Kopin has managed to pack a liquid-crystal display (LCD) with VGA resolution (600 x 480 pixels) onto a screen that measures just over a quarter-inch diagonally. To put that into perspective, that means that the individual color dots are 2.9 x 8.7 micrometers. A typical piece for paper is about 100 micrometers thick.

So who is going to use such a tiny screen? Who is this screen for? Kopin thinks the new screen is a stepping stone on the way to creating a screen with 2,048 x 2,048-pixel resolution the size of a postage stamp. Great HD quality…If you are an ant.

IOGEAR has been on a tear of late with new connectivity products for your computer living experience. One of the latest is the Wireless USB to VGA Kit, priced around $230.

The IOGEAR Wireless USB to VGA Kit, according to IOGEAR, enables HD video streaming between a PC and TV or projector up to 720p in a home or office. It works from up to 30 feet away on a HDTV and lets one make use of the TV’s picture-in-picture feature to watch a show and look at a computer display at the same time.
