This adorable little [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instapocket) projector allows social media users to view their favorite Instagram photos on the wall. Like a [regular projector](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/4k-laser-mini-projector), this cute little invention includes a reel of photos that you insert into the tiny machine.

Each of these special Instagram reels can hold up to 9 snap shots, so customers can pick out their favorite selfies or scenic captures. This neat social media based project is called “Projecteo” and is available currently through Instagram.

This is a clever way to take Instagram a step further, bring it from the computer right into the living room. Full sized projectors are extremely expensive, but with [miniature device](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tcl-projector-c1) is reasonably priced. The idea of using a projector to view photos is extremely retro, but retro is always in style.
