Sony unveiled what is billed as the world’s first flexible, full-color OLED display built on organic thin-film transistor (TFT) technology. The 2.5-inch prototype display supports 16.8 million colors at a 120 x 169 pixel resolution, is 0.3 mm thick and weighs 1.5 grams. The video is in Japanese.

    Looks like he really had to squeeze to get it to bend. Still pretty cool, though.

  2. Mark Derail says:

    One step closer to a fashion designer making a full dress with full video.
    Wearing same dress as another woman? Just change the background.
    Sexy? Select blank spots. . .

    Seriously, for the Troops, invisible armor. Display on the front what a camera sees behind. Would look like Predator.

    Also the obvious publicity just like the movie Blade Runner.

  3. Gig says:

    I don’t speek Japannese and I was able to view the video. I did have a problem with the audio though.

    Pretty cool. I’hate to have to where the white gloves all the time.

  4. Gig says:

    Obviously I have a problem with English as well. speek = speak.

  5. Angel H. Wong says:

    And the best part is that the screen “wears” out the moment a new, more restricive model is released.

  6. ChrisMac says:

    I’d be even more impressed to see it burst into flames

  7. James Hatsis says:

    I can’t wait for the new laptops to use these super thin screens

  8. Pfkad says:

    The gloves are to prevent all the embedded Sony malware from penetrating her skin.

  9. TJGeezer says:

    Very cool technology. I wonder if it could display moving pictures at whatever the TV scan rate is. “Hey Maude, turn on the window. It’s time for Survivor: Moon Colony.”

    I can see this as ddvertising on cyclindrical products. You buy a can of soda and it has this stuff built in and a small battery under the can and bingo it sits on a shelf and plays the commercial on how good it SHOULD be over and over.

    Other applications right out of the gate. Boxes, static window films, Ads on the sides of cars, buses and walls. No more static labels on anything as the greeting card industry and attach a battery and a tune into a card, now any product could have a small battery and this stuff attached to provide moving, talking endorsements of the item.

    The store will become even more irritating as Tony The Tiger yells out at you from the shelf or your Guiness draft in the can teels you over and over ad naseum that you’re BRILLIANT!

    The world just got a little more sick from this idea.
