Behinds the Scenes| Engineering Project ARA

Project ARA, Google’s modular smartphone, is finally coming into form. The folks from Phonebloks released a cool behind-the-scenes video that showcases how much progress has been made.. The Phonebloks crew went up to NK labs (hired by Google to develop ARA) near Boston to shoot this.

Ara’s Lego-like modular connector system is really coming along too. In just a few months, Google will unveil the second major iteration of Ara, and a new prototype that the team has been working on. Rumor has it that the new ARA is more compact, and aesthetically pleasing, but I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
