This new phone dialer system, introduced at The Independent Living in London, reminds of the those sci-fi movies. Instead of pressing the dial pad, you put a photo of the person you want to dial, tap the photo or the holder, and the phone will automatically dial the person’s phone number.

The maker, Mr Goodland, creates the phone system based on the fact that the most common problem among telephone users was dialing. Well, people, especially elderly, can not remember all of his/her friends’ phone numbers, right? That’s the basic idea.

So he decided to design a photo frame holder into which pictures of the person whose number is required can be inserted. The user simply has to tap the photo or the holder in order to dial the correct number. According to Mr Goodland, this photo frame holder can be attached to existing phone, so you don’t need to have a spesific phone to take advantage of it.
