Do you live in an area where the weather is so unpredictable? You wake up, see the sunny sky and wear your summer outfit just to be surprised later that it’s starting to rain. Or vice versa, you wear your favorite jacket and an over-all protection from the rain, and just when you are on your way to work, the sun comes out and leaves you with nothing but sweat. It is very annoying and frustrating, isn’t it?

Designer Seunghan Song thought a cool and portable solution to this, the Window Mobile Phone.
Window Mobile Phone is a concept of a mobile gadget that double functions as a mobile handset and as a gadget that displays the weather outside. Designed as a thin and transparent plastic sheet, the handset displays the weather outside like some sort of a window. If the day outside is sunny, a clear and transparent screen is displayed. During rainy days, the screen shows sign of humidity as it gets covered with droplets of water. For snowy days, a foggy screen is reflected.

The handset features a touchscreen interface and it supports handwriting recognition. The user can simply write text messages on the screen and even draw pictures on the phone in different weather conditions. When the interface is blown, the words and images written or drawn are transformed into SMS characters. This is via the sensitive interaction with the user.

With this, there will be no need for daily updates on the weather. Turning the tv on just to see the daily weather forecast, which are often misleading anyway, won’t be necessary. Just look at the Window Phone and it’s settled. But since it’s yet to be an actual product on the market, we will have to wait and see until it gets into reality. For now, we just have to settle with figuring the weather out on our own.
