Rollable OLEDs
OLEDs
can be made flexible, or transparent. In the future we might see an
OLED displays that is actually rollable. So maybe you could just roll it
when you want to watch some TV, and then remove it when not needed. Or
perhaps the OLEDs will be so thin
and transparent that they will just be
invisible when not in use - you'll just see the bare wall, but when lit
up, it'll display your TV picture.
Nothing
says "future" quite like a rollable display. Today Sony's giving us a
glimpse into what will one day be with its 80µm-thick organic TFT-driven
OLED display. The 4.1-inch display integrates Sony organic thin-film
transistors and OLED technology onto a flexible 20µm substrate lacking
any rigid driver IC chips. As such it can be wrapped around a cylinder
with a 4-mm minimum radius. Display specs include a 432 x 240 pixel
resolution (121ppi) supporting 16M colors while exceeding 100nits
brightness and a 1,000:1 contrast. It's still research, but it's clearly
advancing towards product... someday. See it in action after the
break.
