MagicScroll: digital scroll by Human Media Lab

Experts from the Human Media Lab have created a tablet with a flexible screen that can be wrapped around a cylindrical body, turning the device into something like a scroll. The gadget called MagicScroll is printed on a 3D printer and includes two wheels mounted at the ends. As the wheels rotate, the information moves across the screen, and if the user is interested in something he or she wants to learn more, the minimized display can be expanded.
7.5-inch screen with a resolution of 2K allows you to view photos and videos in detail. The cylindrical body is very light and in many ways more convenient than an ordinary tablet – it can be easily held in one hand. It should be noted that the wheels, which are mentioned above, with the help of movement signal to the user about the receipt of new notifications. MagicScroll can also recognize human gestures, but you must connect a separate computer to activate this feature.
