What is Digg?27 Comments
- zweben, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13This sounds awesome. The color accuracy of a CRT, the power efficiency and contrast of an OLED and the flexibility of e-paper.
But since this is just going to be moving into cell phones in 2010, i'll be happy with OLED for my next display. - goat77, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13I actually think that bobadillo's post is... majestic. It should be preserved forever.
- invader, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13i'm sure i'm not the only person saying: what. the. f*ck. ?.
- gamekid, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Just don't aggravate the dots.
- Amaruca, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4C'mon guys, he's just excited about "bendy" things.
- Falcon929, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Coffee Anyone?
- okdewit, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4This was in my physics schoolbooks 5 years ago. Cool to see it is possible now.
- dasch, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5+1, hilarious
- breakneckridge, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4"he expects that it will be about four years before the company has its first commercial product -- probably a small display for a cell phone."
A lot of unforeseen things can happen in a new technology's development in 4 years. It sounds encouraging so far, but I wouldn't hold your breath. - kaiser79, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2LMFAO +1 digg
- gwood, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3What I want is a quantum dot TV that searches parallel universes for better programs than the crap we get in this universe.
- ConceptJunkie, on 10/12/2007, -1/+34 years is forever in this field. ePaper was a couple years away 4 years ago and it pretty much still is. Vista was 1 year away 4 years ago. Although this is incredibly cool news, it's still very very far away.
- CadMasterAdam, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2exciting stuff
- yahoofrom, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1yeah, quantum rocks.
- SilentPurity, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I will bend his screen to death.
- robohoe, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Pricetag anyone? Wonder what it would cost.
- KJay, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Sweeeeeeeeet. Maybe this way I'll be able to get a nice pretty 17+" display on my laptop without sub 2 hour battery life and low contrast...
- Zippo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Good to see there's lots of development and innovation going on the background.
- schwarzbichler, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0But nanocrystals which use quantum dots sound more cool than polymers. Could be from Stargate ;-)
- procrust1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Another screen technology is polymer light emitting diodes:
http://www.cdtltd.co.uk/technology/38.asp
the "technology" menu offers an interesting read - bendable screens possible; 180 degree viewing angle; its light emitting hence no backlight needed; High contrast.
If only they suggested a timeline for mass production. - jcarrion1976, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1OLED sounds good... I'm pretty excited about SED as well.
I like how things are progressing with all these different technologies. - gh02t, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2Yes, finally an alternative to LCD that doesn't drain the batteries in my laptop.
- quine, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1Looks pretty, but I wonder what the potentiality is for nano-pollution...
- titlesaysitall, on 10/12/2007, -14/+2Will it support my PS3?
- autobahn, on 10/12/2007, -20/+5The system
is down
The system
is down - Arbinshire, on 10/12/2007, -21/+1So what was with digg being down for almost five hours? No mention of it?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -40/+14HOLY CRAP GUYS THIS IS IT. THIS IS THE REVOLUTION. IT STARTS NOW WTFOMGWTF!!!!!!!!
WE COULD BEND THE TV WTFOMGWTF!!!!!!!! BEND IT BABY!! BEND IT LIKE BECKHAM!!!!!!!!
OOOOOHHH YEAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! MY BENDY LAPTOP IS GONNA RUN FOOOOREVER!!!!!!!
FUEL CELL BATTERY PLUS NANOCRYSTAL DISPLAY 4 LYFE MOTHER****** CRADLE 2 DA GRAVE BABY
WTFOMGWTF!!!!!!!
