OLED TV and display

Organic Light Emitting Diode display

(update in Jan 2012) LG is going to show a 55" OLED TV in CES 2012. It is great progress because OLED had been limited to small screens so far. e.g. SONY XEL-1 11" TV was the only OLED in the market for years. see http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/technology/2012/01/lgs-55-inch-oled-tv-at-ces...

Actually interesting to watch lcd and led comparison on lcd display. LOL

[cplai]

@Dalsir1 Did you mean LCD TV versus LED back-lit LCD TV? Note that in LED back lit TV, the LED is only used as a light source behind the LCDs. LIke putting a million tiny shutters in front of one single light bulb. The shutters selectively let an display image shine through. A LED back lit TV uses the same tech as a LCD TV. In this video, the LEDs are made into a million tiny light bulbs that turn on and off independently to make the display image. The two technologies are quite different.

@Dalsir1 OLED TV will be comparable to Plasma TV in terms of picture quality. Plasma TV is out because the technology burns a lot of energy. Most consumers cannot tell the difference anyway while watching. But the electric bill indeed shows a difference. OLED saves energy hence it could become a contender once the manufacturing process catches up on making big screen reliably.

nokia n8 is with OLED :) nice to see that

[cplai]

@crysisen OLED has been around for decades. I remember I had a LG phone like 10 years ago with a tiny OLED display (like smaller than 2"X1"). The display is very bright and colorful but not high resolution. This video is about refining that old technology to make HDTV out of it. It has potential because of its vivid color and energy saving properties.

@cplai in the video....the man who invended it 30 years ago.

So your comment was useless

[cplai]

@shiftyden It is a matter of opinion. My comment serves a purpose of dating the progress. 30 years ago, someone invented a way to make some organic substance glow as an OLED, probably a single indicator light like all other LEDs back in those days. Having a LED to light up the power button on your machine is quite different from a graphic display on a mobile phone I had 10 years ago. Which in turn is quite different from a high def big screen TV promised here. That is progress over 30 years.

Oh yes! OLED makes me so excited i just want to start jacking off!!

[MrDeezi]

damn the "ohlead" annoys me. its O.L.E.D. like what the inventor said..

[victor555117]

Lol, five years! three years later and there is 55" Oled

[kittycatcarley]

COOOOOOL!!!!!!!!! The future looks awesome! So long as it's not like 1984.

[machstarfox]

@shiftyden the speakers of the device that use oleds are where you would plug you rheadphones in.

@crysisen

And...it`s crappy. Well overall quality is good, but something is wrong with the brightness. Only ok to watch some vid in a dark room.

[Rodow5]

Nice but...

Where is the yellow?

Yellow is a basic color....

[MyPassWordIsASDFASDF]

i wander if they use this plus graphene for these inventions

[paco461]

It's never too late to re-invent the bicycle nor is it too late to re-invent the lightbulb.
