Discover the futuristic mobile gadgets Lara Croft is using in the new Tomb Raider movie blockbuster
Angelina Jolie has perfected her English accent to take on the real-life role of archeological explorer Lara Croft, the shapely pixellated star of the Tomb Raider videogames. As you'd expect with that sort of heritage, Tomb Raider is a fast-paced, full-on action-adventure film packed full of state of the art special effects and fight sequences.
However, cutting edge technology isn't restricted to behind the scenes in Tomb Raider. Lara uses several futuristic mobile gadgets during the course of the film, both to stay in touch, and to save her skin. There's the rugged shock-resistant R310 phone, the new handsfree Bluetooth headset, the Web Screen and the revolutionary Communicator device. These are all products produced by the Swedish mobile communications company Ericsson, who are one of the main sponsors of the Tomb Raider film. Some of these devices are already available to buy, some are due to be released soon and some are still "concept" models, showcasing what mobile phones might be able to do in the future. |
