Japan Display has shown off anew paper like display which is capable of displaying full video in color, this new display is an ultra thin LCD display, have a look at the video below which shows it in action.
?Ordinary liquid crystal displays have a backlight, and produce the picture by using a liquid crystal shutter. But this panel doesn?t have a backlight. It reflects light from above, and the liquid crystal shutter is used to produce a monochrome image. At the same time, color filters are used, to give a color picture.?
?This display has what?s called a Light Control Layer. When the display simply reflects light as usual, it looks metallic, like a mirror. When we add this layer, the display collects light to some extent, in the direction of the user?s eyes, making it look similar to paper. But the light returns efficiently in the direction of the eyes. By developing this layer, we?ve achieved good color, which couldn?t be done with ordinary digital paper. This display can show video, so we think it?ll lead to new solutions and applications.?
There are no details as yet on when these new paper like LCDs will be available in our future devices you can find out more details over at DigInfo.
