Mitsubishi has announced it has created a new Linux-driven Blu-ray player one-third the size of original players designed for installation in cars.
The player measures 50 x 178 x 180mm, and has a board density 1.5 times higher than original Blu-ray players, and anti-vibration has obviously been improved over regular models used in the living room.
It will support BD-ROM, BD-R and BD-E, along with CD and DVD, though it should be interesting to see what the final product looks like after it's released. Exact technical specifications and BD standards of the Mitsubishi player have not been revealed.
Panasonic originally impressed consumers with a conceptual in-dash Blu-ray player in late 2007, but the product still hasn't made it to market.
