This version, with the codename SHOW, is an advanced, standalone, fully functioning prototype using the proprietary miniature PicoP (TM) display engine – which can display a widescreen, DVD quality image at 848×480 pixels (WGVA) using red, green and blue lasers.

SHOW can connect directly to laptops, mobile phones, portable media players, digital cameras and other mobile devices to project large, high-resolution images and video onto any surface. The images projected can range anywhere from 30cm to 2.5m in size depending upon the projection distance and are always in focus. The production version of the device is expected to offer approximately 2.5 hours of continuous battery life, sufficient to watch a full-length movie without a need for recharging.
Back in July (2007) Microvision announced that it had signed an agreement with Motorola and more recently signed a development contract with one of the world’s leading distributors and manufacturers of diverse consumer electronics products to create Pico Projectors For Mobile Applications.
