Ultra-Thin Stretchable Displays

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

LG’s Stretchable Displays Can Be Used for Various Purposes

— November 8, 2022 — Tech
LG Display has announced the world’s first ultra-thin stretchable display, which can be bent up to 20% of its original size and shape without damage. A 12-inch RGB screen with full color and a stated pixel density of 100 pixels per inch is used for this device.

The manufacturer says that the screens can endure "severe external impacts." Although the ultra-thin material resembles LG's earlier OLED-based flexible displays, the firm claims that micro-LED technology was used for this new stretchy version. Additionally, the stretchy screen is easy to adhere to curved surfaces, including skin, clothes, furniture, cars, and airplanes.

“Alongside its thin, lightweight design, the Stretchable display’s revolutionary technology offers next-level versatility for various daily scenarios,” the company said in a press release. The display is “easily attachable to curved surfaces such as skin, clothing, furniture, automobiles and aircraft.”
