It works like a QWERTY keyboard and makes the original chirping sounds of the R2-Q5 robot during the projection. For the less educated, a warning that this is not R2-D2, his more famous "brother". This one has already been in this role and remains only a collector's item.

The Oaxis inkCase 6 is an e-ink display case for the iPhone 6 smartphone. And no, we're not going to call it smart, because that word has been abused a lot lately.
