Massive potential from this...........not least for terrain masking of vehicles nevermind the display potentials...........
One of the main advantages of OLED is that it can be flexible—so flexible, in fact, that it can be wrapped around a pencil. Taking 2007's .3mm prototype Sony's made a new one just 80μm-thick.
That's about ten times the size of a red blood cell, or just a tiny bit thinner than a single hair. The whole OLED measures 4.1-inches in size, and has a 432 x 240 resolution and a contrast ratio of under 1,000:1.
It's another world first, boasting that it's the first time an OLED panel can still stream video while being rolled up (around a cylinder with a 4mm radius) and stretched.
We see so many crazy concepts on Gizmodo, like this flexible watch computer someone slapped with a Sony logo yesterday. An OLED screen capable of still producing moving images, yet being able to roll up despite its super-thin nature, is definitely the future. [Akihabara News]
