Introducing Maptor, portable map projector equipped with GPS makes getting lost is not so trendy. Shaving some size and weight off the average GPS handheld or foldable map, Maptor displays your maps via a pico projector no larger than a lipstick.

Designed by Jinsun Park and Seonkeun Park of South Korea’s Samsung Art & Design Institute, Maptor includes a built-in GPS receiver that provides you with a little red dot on the map that points to your current location, so that you can quickly get your bearings.

A button lets you zoom in or out of the projected image, has a simple on/off toggle and a switch to control zoom and map size. It can download maps via Bluetooth connection and is battery-powered like a regular flashlight. Maptor is not yet a product. See the video below for more information on this concept.
