As promised, here's the video from this week's San Antonio Society for Information Display conference, where a gander at the future of what our screens will look like could be had.
Included in the video above: transparent displays, one-pixel cell phone skins, a wearable curved wrist display, energy-efficient TVs of the future and more. It was really a blast getting to look a few years ahead at the technology that'll soon be attracting our eyeballs.
Note: This post was originally published June 5th.
Edited to add, June 29: A few more things based on today's All Tech Considered conversation:
- We noted a few weeks ago that some of these technologies, especially flexible displays, are coming much sooner than you might expect. They're going into mass production now and we will probably see products roll out with flexible displays by January's Consumer Electronics Show, if not sooner.
- The Society for Information Display's official site. They organize the San Antonio conference I attended this month.
- TV screens go greener.
- More on the future of e-ink.
- 3-D TV in your living room. How soon?
