In both the gaming and computing worlds, some concept designs and projects can be so crazy that sometimes they never come to fruition: At IFA 2024, Acer unveiled an unusual project that lets you use a laptop’s touchpad as a controller.
Acer plans to design the future with Project DualPlay
Project DualPlay is a laptop concept designed to offer gamers a dual-player gaming experience. One of the most remarkable features of this device is that it combines the use of a keyboard and controller, giving gamers unparalleled flexibility…
The device’s large touchpad also functions as a built-in and removable wireless controller. Users can easily remove this controller by pressing the unlock button on the top of the keyboard.
With this simple gesture, the dual 5-watt speakers on the sides of the laptop are also activated. In this way, it is aimed to provide an unforgettable sound experience to the players by creating a feeling of being fully involved in the game atmosphere.
The disassembled nature of the device is a great advantage, especially in fighting games. The detachable controller separates into two joysticks, instantly transforming the PC into a battle station and maximizing the excitement of the game. This innovative design gives gamers the freedom to seamlessly switch between keyboard and controller use.
Finally, it should be noted that all these features are just a concept unveiled at IFA 2024. This cool design, which looks like a space shuttle, may never come to fruition. But you know, where dreams reach, realities can reach. Perhaps we may actually encounter such a design in the near future.
