Bend it, squeeze it, shape it any way you want; here comes the OLED of the future! Sony demoed a flexible OLED screen at the CES and, to prove its resistance, submitted it to a torture test!
Despite the harsh treatment (the OLED was constantly bent by a machine) we are happy to report that the screen didn't cave in.The company could use this technology in the future for electronic books, laptops, watches...
SonyInsider.com filmed the scenes and put the footage on Vimeo.
The first clip shows the experiment and the second features something looking like a bracelet but that is in fact Sony’s Contrast Flex OLED Walkman. A prototype, of course.
