Kano Computing is back with another bizarre puck gadget with an intriguing but slightly confusing idea. The Stem Projector is a spin-off of the Stem Player, an audio remixing device released in 2021 in conjunction with Kanye West. The company’s new offering abandons the controversial Ye partnership and turns its emphasis from music to video.
In practise, the new item is a battery-powered projector for movies or art. You may view conventional movies, remix preloaded clips, and create visual landscapes with the Stem Projector. It resembles (but is significantly bigger than) the Stem Player in appearance, since it is likewise a fleshy puck with swirling lights and buttons. It contains a mini-HDMI connector for connecting other devices and supports AirPlay and Chromecast. However, with a stated maximum brightness of 300 lumens or 150 ANSI lumens, it will be difficult to market as a conventional projector.
