3. Introduction
The E-Ball concept
pc is a sphere
shaped pc which is
the smallest design
among all the
laptops and
desktops designed
by Apostol

stands, opens by simultaneously pressing and
holding the two buttons located on each
side. E Ball concept pc don't have any
external display unit.
It comes packed with a projected keyboard
and display.
8. Size of E - Ball
• E-Ball is very small, it is having only 6 inch
diameter sphere.
• It is having 120×120mm motherboard.
9. Elements of E - Ball
• Virtual keyboard
• Wireless optical mouse
• LCD projector
• Web cam
• Paper holder
• Dual core processor
• 2GB RAM
• 350-500GB hard drive
• Modem
12. Virtual Keyboard
• A virtual keyboard is a projection keyboard
that is projected and touched on any flat
surface.
• Virtual keyboard basically uses the
principle of sensor technology and
artificial intelligence to let users work on
any surface.
• User operates by typing on or within a
wireless or optical -detectable surface or
area rather than by depressing physical
keys.
14. ADVANTAGES & DISADVANTAGES
ADVANTAGES:-
o Portability.
o Accuracy.
o Speed of text entry
o Lack of need for flat or large typing
surface.
o Ability to minimize the risk for repetitive
strain injuries.
15. DISADVANTAGES:-
o It is very costly ranging from 150 to 200
dollars.
o The room in which the projected keyboard
is used should not be very bright.
o Virtual keyboard is hard to get used to.
18. ADVANTAGES:-
• LCD is generally more light efficient.
• LCD projectors can project bright, vivid
images with a low output lamp.
• LCD trends to produce a sharper image.
DISADVANTAGES:-
• LCD projectors bulky as there are more
internal components.
• Dead pixels.
• LCD competes extremely well when high
light output is required.
20. ADVANTAGES
• Higher contrast.
• Reduced pixilation.
• Since the DLP light engine consists of a
single chip rather than three LCD panels,
DLP projectors tend to be more compact.
DISADVANTAGES
• Rainbow effect.
• High cost.
21. Software Interface
The software interface of E-Ball concept
pc is highly stylized with icons that can be

• It is difficult to understand if any problem
occurs in hardware part.
• Plane surface required for using the
keyboard.
30. CONCLUSION
• As the year passes, the COMPUTER SIZE
is becoming SMALLER.
• Today’s technology is at its peak point
beyond what we could ever imagine.
