We have already pointed out as one of the most promenttenti of organic LED displays are open to flexible large-scale scenarios for the conveyance of the images and information everywhere.

From the University of Tokyo comes the news that researchers have developed a prototype flexible OLED screen with a resolution of 256 pixels in monochrome version, the most interesting property is that it can be folded up to a thousand times!

All while maintaining excellent image quality with the manufacture of a compound based on a fluorine rubber layer of carbon nanotubes, typical of organic OLEDs.

Further research will lead to the development of color screens, increased resolution and infinite capacity to bend and roll up as needed. Achieved these improvements, the main applications may involve electronic newspapers folding receive information in real time, monitors worn on clothing or body with information on the health status of the bearer or the surrounding environment, and much more.
