LG 77″ Flexible OLED, 1443ppi VR made with Google, LTPS for automotive, LG Nanocell
Tour of the LG Display booth at SID Display Week 2018 featuring LG’s 77″ transparent and flexible OLED display showcasing LG’s expertise in manufacturing large OLED displays made on clear polyimide then separated from the glass plate using a laser process.
LG 65” Crystal Sound OLED generates sound on the surface of the OLED display (as used in the Sony OLED TVs). LG has sticked two small ‘exciters’ at the back to turn the OLED panel into a speaker
LG shows a high resolution 4.3-inch 5K VR display with a density of 1,443ppi developed in collaboration with Google, it is a white OLED with color filters. The brightness is only 150 nits which would not be high enough for a smartphone display but is sufficient for Virtual Reality headsets.
For the automotive displays demos, LG uses the same LTPS technology commonly found in mobile phones to make car displays, a new car dashboard concept that includes displays in the center of the dash as well as one each for the driver and passenger. This trend is intended to replace all the mechanical display modules with interactive touchscreens. The passenger display, which was much larger than the one for the driver, provides access to multiple functions, like movies, messaging and other kinds of media.
LG Nanocell TV technology to compete with the Quantum Dot. They have small nanoparticle which are 1nm in size inside the color filters.
This is a tour with Dr Guillaume Chansin, Technology Consultant at Irimitech.

Oculus Research of Facebook Keynote at SID Display Week 2018
Douglas Lanman, Director of Computational Imaging at Oculus Research, give his keynote address: “Reactive Displays: Unlocking Next-Generation VR/AR Visuals with Eye Tracking” at SID Display Week 2018, the world’s largest exhibition for electronic information display technology.
As personal viewing devices, head-mounted displays offer a unique means to rapidly deliver richer visual experiences than past direct-view displays occupying a shared environment. Viewing optics, display components, and sensing elements may all be tuned for a single user. It is the latter element that helps differentiate from the past, with individualized eye tracking playing an important role in unlocking higher resolutions, wider fields of view, and more comfortable visuals than past displays. This talk will explore the “reactive display” concept and how it may impact VR/AR devices in the coming years.
Douglas Lanman, Ph.D. is the director of computational imaging at Oculus Research, where he leads investigations into advanced display and imaging technologies. His prior research has focused on head-mounted displays, glasses-free 3D displays, light-field cameras, and active illumination for 3D reconstruction and interaction. He received a B.S. in applied physics with honors from Caltech in 2002 and M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from Brown University in 2006 and 2010, respectively. He was a senior research scientist at NVIDIA Research from 2012 to 2014, a postdoctoral associate at the MIT Media Lab from 2010 to 2012, and an assistant research staff member at MIT Lincoln Laboratory from 2002 to 2005.
ITRI shows microLED full-color microdisplay on PCB board vs. glass
Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) demonstrated a full-color microdisplay with microLED on PCB board vs. the widespread practice of placing microLEDs on glass substrate, which is much flatter than the PCB . The significance of this technology pertains initially to indoor and outdoor signage because most signage is on PCB board, and not glass. IRTI projects that the industry will prefer PCB board because it can be produced at higher quantities and lower-costs than glass. They can also tie multiple modules together to create a modular display. Future applications include AR/VR and wearable.

EXALOS shows RGB superluminescent light-emitting diodes (SLEds) for next-gen AR microdisplays
EXALOS AG is developing visible RGB superluminescent light-emitting diodes (SLEds) as illumination sources for next-gen AR microdisplays. SLEDs exhibit performance characteristics that bridge the gap between semi-conductor lasers and LEDs. They combine the potential of wide-color gamut and high efficiency with high-spatial coherence (high directionality) and low-temporal coherence (reduced speckle content/coherent artifacts). Consequently, they offer important benefits when used to illuminate near-to-eye MEMs-scanning architectures and spatial-light modulators in holographic display systems.
At the I-Zone, EXALOS demonstrated its first prototype cyano-green (490-500 nm) SLED and its new red-blue devices. It also demonstrated reduced speckle in a projection application; showing the advantage of their special light source known as “super amazing diode,” a speckle-free laser.
Filmed at the I-Zone demo and prototype area at SID Display Week, the world’s largest and best exhibition for electronic information display technology.
