Key Characteristics & Benefits
The assets disclose the following:
- The disclosed device has multiple display tiles comprising OLED (Organic Light Emitting Device) based display regions with multiple pixel elements.
- A portion of each tile is tilted at an angle with respect to its neighbors, while the remaining portion is kept underneath the display area of an adjacent tile and is used for electrical connections.
- A seamless, continuous display with pleasing aesthetic appearance can be constructed from smaller, more cost-effective components. This enables display site maintenance, and repair without the need to replace the whole display.
- The disclosed display can be designed in various sizes and shapes, including square, rectangular, and other complex shapes, without compromising display quality.
- In addition, an OLED backlight can be used to illuminate the pixels and hence can be used to enhance display quality in LCD screens.
- OLED-based displays have higher power efficiency, thermal stability, and lifetime. For these reasons, they are well suited for various critical applications, such as automotive dashboards and instrumental panels.
Market Potential
The assets will be of interest to the following applications and industries:
- Display devices are used to build larger seamlessly-tiled displays from very cost effective smaller components. This is especially attractive for professional usage in shopping malls, sports arenas, and general advertising applications.
- This lot should be of interest to companies manufacturing large displays, gaming consoles, computers, medical device equipment, and televisions.
- The global market for electronic displays was expected to be around $141 billion in 2010, while the OLED display market is expected to reach $7.1 billion by 2016.(1) (2)
