Microoled and CEA-LETI claim to have made an OLED
display with the smallest pixels yet.
"This achievement in the world of microdisplay opens the door for
high picture quality electronic viewfinders for cameras, but also
enables the market of high definition video eyeglasses for mobile
video applications," said Eric Marcellin-Dibon CEO and co-founder
of Microoled.
The 9.6mm WVGA micro-display from
Microoled
is based on OLED technology licensed from Thomson and
CEA.
"Marrying the capabilities of CMOS and the flexibility of
OLED offers a unique route to
micro-displays with unequalled resolution and brightness," said
Laurent Malier CEO of CEA-Leti. "We foresee a tremendous potential
of applications for theses devices. The high resolution and the low
power consumption makes it perfect for a large set of nomadic
products."
The display has over 1.7 million sub-pixels.
