An OLED uses organic semiconductors to create thin light emitting panels. OLEDs are used to create thin, beautiful, flexible and efficient display and lighting panels, and are the future technology of choice.
Cooler Master's MM830 is a customizable MMO gaming mouse that featuresa built-in D-pad, eight programmable buttons, a 24,000 DPI optical sensor (Avago PMW3360) and dynamic four zones of RGB LED lighting. The MM830 also includes a monochrome white 96x64 customizable PMOLED display.
The MM830 will start shipping soon for $79.99 (note: affiliate link to Amazon.com).
Researchers from Sweden's Chalmers University have developed a new "double doping" process that basically doubles the efficiency of Polymer OLED emitter materials.
The researchers explain that doping in organic semiconductors operates through what is known as a redox reaction, in which the dopant molecule receives an electron from the semiconductor which increases the electrical conductivity of the semiconductor. The efficiency limit of current doped organic semiconductors has been limited by the fact that each dopant molecule was able to to exchange one electron only. In the new research it was shown how it is possible to move two electrons for every dopant molecule which increases the conductivity of the organic material.
HDTVTest posted an interesting interview with Cadmium-Free QD developer Nanosys CEO and president Jason Hartlove. In this long interview Jason discusses the company's technology and recent achievements.
Jason reveals that the company is working on emissive Quantum Dots displays - and he expects to have a full-color monitor-size QLED display prototype ready by the end of 2019. Jason says that they hope to show these display prototypes in private demos at CES 2020.
China-based Hisense announced a new technology that the company says will enable its LCDs to compete with OLEDs in high contrast. The so-called ULED XD panels use two LCDs panels, on on top of the other. The inner LCD is a monochrome (geyscale) FHD LCD that is used to block the light on low brightness images, and on top of it is the usual 4K full-color LCD.
This is basically a way to achieve a high number of 'local dimming' zones for an LCD display (over 2 million such zones, in fact). The TV itself is very bright (over 2,900 nits) and reportedly offers a great image quality and an almost perfect contrast. HiSense it will release its first ULED XD TVs later this year in China. Apparently SkyWorth is also demonstrating a similar technology at CES.
Cleer's Mirage Smart Display Speaker features a curved 7.8" flexible AMOLED display that is wrapped around the speaker's cylindrical body, to offer an "immersive viewing from all angles".
The Mirage offers Amazon Alexa integration and is based on Qualcomm's APQ8053 Smart Audio Platform with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. The audio device is a ringed 3.1-channel speaker with a passive radiator and several selectable DSP modes.
LG Display is showing 55" transparent OLED TVs at CES 2019, and here's a video that shows the display in action:
LGD says that its 55" OLEDs feature a transparency of 40%. The company has been showing its large-area transparent OLEDs for many years, but we're still waiting for this technology to be commercialized.
LG announced some exciting products at CES 2019, including the world's first rollable TV and the world's first 88" 8K OLED TV. LG also impressed CES attendees with its huge "LG OLED Falls" display.
The "LG OLED Falls" is comprised of 260 55-inch LG OLED TV displays - 76 concave ones, 72 convex ones and 112 flat ones. The whole display is 6 x19.8 meters in size.
