Fujitsu Lifebook: A Laptop With Detachable Camera, Tablet AndSmartphone

Fujitsu is known for some pretty ground-breaking products like the
world's first laptop to bundle palm vein authentication. But this new
Fujitsu notebook concept envisioned by Yanko Design will certainly
knock your teeth off. They have come up with the Lifebook, a laptop
which has a detachable camera and also integrates a smartphone and
a tablet.

While devices integrating a smartphone aren't exactly news (see the
newly launched PadFone Infinity Lite), the idea of a detachable tablet
and camera is something fresh. Fujitsu Lifebook concept shows

The slate is actually the virtual keyboard that can be attached via a
16-pin connector.

That's because the Lifebook doesn't have its own dedicated keypad,
so it will rely on the tablet for this purpose. As soon as the tablet is
integrated into its dedicated slot, the slate will turn into a full-size
touch-based QWERTY keyboard. Now imagine how fun that could be.
The idea behind this unifying device is creating a bridge between our
different devices, in an attempt to synchronize all data stored on
them. As the official Yanko Design page explains. “The proposed
Lifebook is a laptop computer concept based on the principle of
‘shared hardware’. Currently a lot of hardware is wasted when we use
separate devices, as there is often a lot of ‘repeat’ of data stored and
features.”

songs on my music player, why do I have to block the same amount
of storage on my laptop? Similarly, if I have a processor sitting in my
tablet, why can it not also run/assist my laptop? If I have a fully
functional camera with its own memory and image processing power,
why do I need to have it repeated in my laptop?”
Apart from the design feats, there’s not much info about the laptop’s
specs, but we can spot a few ports in the pics. The Lifebook should
have Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and draw power from an Intel Core iX CPU.
Furthermore, the screen-size we're envisioning here is somewhere
between 13- and 16-inches with at least HD resolution, but we know
Fujitsu can do a lot better. Would you pick up such a device?
