A long way from the drive-in

Tiny Glass Lens Could Turn Mobile Devices Into Projectors
A tiny aspherical glass lens could turn your smartphone or tablet into a Star Wars-style projector.

It may not be holographic, but at least you and your friends could sit around a table or look up at a wall rather than huddling around someone’s palm-sized smartphone to watch the latest hilarity on YouTube.
At 1mm x 1mm x .8mm, it's about the size of a mechanical pencil lead point. That's pretty impressive.
