Today, November 8th, LG Display officially unveiled the world’s first 12-inch high-definition stretchable display that can be freely stretched, folded, twisted and more.\u00a0And all this without image distortion, damage to the display itself and problems with color reproduction.\u00a0The company noted that the presented development provides the ability to stretch by 20% of its original size, while the pixel density is 100 ppi and there is full support for the RGB color palette.\u00a0Accordingly, this is a full-fledged display in the usual sense of the word.<\/p>\n

LG UNVEILS THE WORLD’S FIRST STRETCHABLE DISPLAY FOR CLOTHING, CARS AND MORE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The new display is based on a highly elastic film substrate made of special silicon, which is also used in contact lenses.\u00a0Thanks to this, a 12-inch display can be stretched up to a diagonal of 14 inches – the material is quite flexible, somewhat reminiscent of a rubber band, only with a higher density.\u00a0Another feature of the stretchable display is micro-LED light sources with a pixel pitch of less than 40 microns.\u00a0Due to this, the display receives an impressive level of durability – it can withstand impressive external influences without visible damage.\u00a0And, of course, this allows you to use high resolution, which is not inferior to modern conventional monitor displays, for example.<\/p>\n

In addition, the new display can take on absolutely any shape, surpassing any modern flexible display solutions currently on the market.\u00a0And while many thought it would change the foldable smartphone market, the market is actually much broader.\u00a0LG representatives said that their new development, in addition to flexibility, also boasts impressive durability and extreme reliability, thanks to which the displays can be used in a wide variety of commercial applications.\u00a0For example, a new kind of display can be easily integrated into clothing, furniture, cars or aircraft, significantly improve the wearable electronics segment, even attach the display directly to human skin.<\/p>\n

The versatility of the product is really amazing, especially against the backdrop of the active growth of the wearable electronics and smart cars segment, but so far the manufacturer is not ready to give at least an approximate date for the appearance of the first commercial product based on a stretchable display.\u00a0The technology is probably still too expensive at the moment to make jackets with built-in displays or integrate a display into car seats, so it will take a little while to revolutionize this market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
