One High Tech Locket

Kodak 1881 01-1

If I could travel back in time, I'd go back to when Mark Twain were alive. I'd tell him of our future without giving him any visual reference. I'd then ask him to design what he thinks our future looks like. He'd might come up with something like the Kodak 1881, a digital camera concealed in a locket. The design harkens to an era where anything of value was an heirloom.

The lens is cleverly integrated into the front looking like an expensive piece of onyx. The controls are all hidden along the edges. Opening the locket reveals LCD screens for photo viewing. The Kodak 1881 is just a concept by Lindsey Pickett but I suspect Mark Twain would totally approve.

Another picture after the jump.

Lovely! I can imagine holding it up and shouting MOON ... PRISM ... POWER!

I wouldn't turn into Sailor Moon, but I'd probably have photos of people staring at me strangely.
