Leading Edge Gear Week: Pocket Rocket Mini-Projector

Each day this week we'll feature an innovative new product featured in our October issue's ADVENTURE's Leading Edge story, on newsstands now. Preview it here.

There’s no getting around the eye-straining display of an iPod or cell phone, so toy-robot maker WowWee came up with a solution: a mini-projector called the Cinemin Swivel ($349). Just bigger than a candy bar, it can beam images and videos from smartphones, MP3 players, and laptops onto a wall. The picture can stretch as wide as a 60-inch TV screen—all the better to show off those vacation slides with.
