Mozilla SeaBird
Seabird was created by Billy May,
a Mozilla Labs community member who in early 2009
created an initial vision of what an Open Web mobile
phone could look like. Seabird is Billy’s follow up
project in which he incorporated the feedback he
received from the wider community on his first throw-
away concept.

Pico Projector
With mobile phone companies
such as Samsung, LG and
Motorola moving towards
display applications for
projectors, the technology
remains open for expanding user
interaction and input at the
same time.

Design
The form development
took its cues from various
aerodynamic, avian and
decidedly feminine forms.
Its erect posture intends a
sense of poise while its
supine conformity to the
hand reconciles that with
the user’s desire for digital
control. The curvature of
the back also serves a
functional role in
elevating the projector
lens elements when lying
flat. - Raval Sneh
