ASU Bracelet
The images in this article are good, the writing is not so good. I think it's translated.

Interesting A-SU page
Today was very interesting. Joe has been connecting dots, and it appears that Qualper is actually part of Haier (ASU has been showing up on the Qualper website, using the logo found here.)
A-SU is a virtual certainty to be a part of HAIER; there is supporting evidence, but not an undeniable connection yet. A-SU was connected at the Haier Booth at CES.
How this is all going to shake out remains to be seen, but there are companies out there who are serious about incorporating PicoP.

The Next big thing in Phones May not be a Phone
This is one of the best dot-connecting articles I've read yet. You can see MicroVision at the center of all of this... if the phone function is divided among many devices, what the devices need is an easy to install screen -- a big screen with a small form factor.
Think Haier, ASU, Cicret... etc.
We're all over the future.

Industry experts believe innovation in smartphones is giving way to phone functions popping up as software or services in all manner of new devices from cars to fridges to watches and jewellery rather than remaining with handheld devices.
And analysts and product designers said fresh breakthroughs are running up against the practical limits of what's possible in current smartphone hardware in terms of screen size, battery life and network capacity.
"Everything in the phone industry now is incremental: slightly faster, slightly bigger, slightly more storage or better resolution," said Christian Lindholm, inventor of the easy text-messaging keyboards in old Nokia phones that made them the best-selling mobile devices of all time.
The financial stakes are high as the futures of Apple, Google, and Microsoft, the world's three biggest listed companies at the end of last year, may now turn on who gets the jump on making handsets redundant.
Many firms are experimenting with new ways to help consumers interact with the wider world through touch, sight and sound.
These include voice-activated personal assistant devices dangling from "smart jewellery" necklaces with tiny embedded microphones or tiny earpieces that get things done for us based on our verbal commands.
The world's biggest tech companies have made real progress in this arena with Google Now, Apple Siri, Microsoft Cortana and Amazon.com's Alexa now able to read texts or emails for users, answer practical questions, control phone features, handle basic communications or read a map.
Lindholm now runs KoruLab, developers of compact, ultra-efficient software for running wearable devices. He sees smartphone functions splitting into two camps - big-screen devices for rich entertainment and compact wearables for more transactional activities like keeping up with one’s calendar, health or fitness monitoring or paying for goods or services.
Whatever platform might displace the handheld phone also will need to resolve nagging questions about battery life, which have become more pressing as consumers watch more and more video.
The next big device also needs more flexible screens capable of working in different lighting conditions. That’s a decades-old dream of gadget enthusiasts that has eluded recognized market leaders Samsung and LG of Korea, which have struggled for years to mass-produce flexible screens at anything close to mass-market prices.

ASU Smart Watch -- Coming THIS month.
The ASU projector is almost certainly MicroVision.
This was a company & Product that I looked for repeatedly at CES. (Consumer Electronics Show). ASU showed the same booth location as Haier (Where I got a glimpse of the R2D2 Robot that is confirmed to use PicoP.)
I expect more news on this soon, as the release date is claimed to be THIS month in China and in June in the US.

Take this new smartwatch that lets you watch movies or your latest video communique from MI6, projected onto a nearby wall. It’s called the ASU Cast One. First, it’s a smartwatch running a version of Android Lollipop. Second, it’s a freakin’ movie projector. What?! The company says it projects up to six-and-a-half feet in distance and the screen expands to 60 inches. ASU says it rivals home theater projectors with its 720P resolution
The watch should launch in China in March and June in the US for $300. Just don’t shine your latest Netflix favorite in anybody’s eye.

A-su Laser Watch
I looked for A-Su at the Haier booth. They were scheduled to be there. (The PicoP equipped R2D2 was there, but wasn't shown.) I was there several times trying to find it. I originally found the R2D2 under a cloth (and then disappeared) ... I got close, but missed it.
Maxim -- Asu Laser Sports Watch (Check it at the source!)
I admit it, I wasn't expecting this watch to wow me like it did. I knew I was about to see a "wearable projector" as I headed into the press conference held in a little side room at the Venetian at #CES2016. So I figured it just shined the time on your hand—impressive but not earth shattering. Then the folks at ASU used their Cast One watch to throw a five-foot 720p video up onto the wall.

It actually worked pretty well, instantly marking it as one of the coolest demos I'd see at the show. This promotional video gives you an idea of what I saw in that dark room.
Since it was a press conference, they went on to say that it does everything in the world a watch could possibly do and all other previous attempts at wrist-borne tech are crap by comparison. Notwithstanding all the marketing hyperbole, it does look like it'd incorporate tons of innovative and practical features.

The big caveat is that it'd have to strike a pristine balance—for instance, between having enough processor speed and battery life to do what it needs to for long enough to make it worth it. (Would you actually watch full movies or just use it as a slick tool for extending your phone's screen in quick little bursts?)

Commented Link (Good one) This article claims the projector is from STM. The specs for the STM device are significantly inferior to the MVIS picop. This is a space that deserves to be watched. Inferior competition won't hurt us a bit.
