There are a lot of thermal printers in the market right now. People use it for scrapbooking and journaling, labeling, and even printing out receipts for small businesses. If you own one, have you ever wished that it had a screen so you could watch videos on it? No? Well, this concept for a thermal printer is apparently not mainly a printer but actually a learning device with a video screen.

Even though the name has the words thermal printer on it, it looks like that is just a secondary function of the device. The N2-Thermal printer is a concept for a screen-equipped learning device. It looks like a regular camera and it also has a camera function as well. It seems to be a lot of things to appeal to people who need all of these things.
It’s primarily being pushed as a learning device as there are videos to be loaded on it so students or even grown ups will be able to view these video explanations. The camera has an AI-powered photo-based question search function and can even correct the homework of the kids (although that isn’t really explained). There’s also a flip stand so you can adjust the viewing angle and it can also be replaced with other designs as it has a quick release structure.
As for the thermal printing function, it’s still there since it’s what it’s called but for why you need a printer though is unclear. Maybe they can print their homework or something, although of course the options for that is limited.
