This is the part I like about Sony
Crunshii | 2:34 PM on 10.08.2009 14 comments


Whenever they just shut up in the PR department and just focus on talking on their own products Is when I truly love Sony. Sony released today the new "bendable" and transparent organic light emitting diode (OLED) technology. These are the new prototypes featuring an OLED at a mere 0.2 mm thick. The prototype devices are a Vaio notebook, a flexible e-book, and a Walkman bracelet, sorry no PSP2 yet but hey, this is a step into the right direction!

Pure


Sleek


Sexyness...


Possible?


I remember Sony releasing almost 3 years ago in 2007, the prototype of this Paper touch screen LED technology. What they showed back then was a simple video playing on this thin paper plastic while being bent back and forth. Now finally after 3 years of development it is finally shown for commercial use. When I saw this I knew this was the next step in computers and future technology and was really excited because soon we will be doing Minority Report computing.

Ok enough of the small talk, time to see it in action...


Drooling yet? While this post is not based on actual video games, you can't help but wonder what type of can come with this type of technology. 100" HDOLED that you staple to your wall? Those PSP2 concept that kept everyone wishing Sony would do?







I hope Sony releases this into the market, I hope they don't make it expensive... I hope they do find some sort of way to use this technology to cut prices down and do more. This technology makes the Macbook Air and new Kindle look like a fat elephant.

I'd happily take that bottom one as a PSP2, or even as a Portable PS2.

They can keep that Bendy shit.
Elsa's Destructoid Blog
Awesome! Yeah, the pictures and demos of the tech alone are so much better than the terrible PR they usually employ.
Takeshi's Destructoid Blog
Gimme all of that!
pedrovay2003's Destructoid Blog
...Wow. Okay, those I really like.
Crunshii's Destructoid Blog
I wonder how many folds does that new Vaio can take... if it is Paper thin I wonder how many times can you fold it until it starts showing skid marks.
AstralDrmz's Destructoid Blog
The Walkman bracelet and Vaio are straight sexy. Not sure about that first PSP render, but I would gladly take the second.
grafkhun's Destructoid Blog
I remember seeing the first video of the paper screen tech, glad to see it's actually getting developed into something cool. That bracelet is pretty sexy as well.
bluexy's Destructoid Blog
CACTUAR!!!!
Dan CiTi's Destructoid Blog
I don't see how anyone can find those design appealing, but the bottom looks like it could be awesome.

That Vaio and Walkman look amazing though, Sony needs to get those through testing and any other kind of production phases and out to the public!
Crunshii's Destructoid Blog
@DanCiti, yea remember these are still concepts so they will get better. I think Sony is just showing off their muscle before they fully release it so they can get more stock investments now.

Nevertheless this is a superb accomplishment and all other companies will borrow/follow.
thefil's Destructoid Blog
You guys should know, OLED technology is very expensive. It will be a long time before it's cost-effective to include it in something like a PSP2.
Qraze's Destructoid Blog
you mean sitting on my screen won't break it? not that my skinny ass could but...
Crunshii's Destructoid Blog
hmmm even if it wouldnt break, I don't think I would sit on that Vaio laptop.. erm... paper pc, w/e u call it!
brainderailment's Destructoid Blog
I heard about this tech about 12 years ago, and I wondered why I hadn't seen it come to fruition anywhere. Practical application must've been the problem. considering that vaio, where is the computer, all I see is a screen. it would have to be more like a vaio portable multimedia device rather than a computer. I heard it was from a place called Cray computers or something.
