Accessory maker Anker announces a sequel to the Nebula Capsule pico projector-- the Nebula Capsule II, a cylindrical number able to project 1280 x 720 resolution images up to 100-inch via brighter 200 lumens lamp.
The Nebula Capsule II promises a number of improvements over the first version. It stands 15cm tall and runs on Android TV 9.0, meaning it supports a number of streaming and media apps, including Google Play, YouTube and Netflix. Google Assistant also comes included, with a built-in microphone allowing for voice control, and users can Cast media to the projector through other Android devices.
Further improvements include an 8W speaker with dual passive radiators and a battery Anker claims powers up to 3 hours of video playback on a single charge. Charging takes place over USB-C with USB Power Deliver (USB-PD), and a full charge promises to take 2.5 hours. Further connectivity comes through HDMI, USB, aux-out, wifi and Bluetooth.
The Nebula Capsule II is currently available on a preorder basis on Kickstarter, where it already made well beyond an initial $50000 pledge goal. Anker says shipping starts from May 2019.
