The combination of two advanced technologies developed by Kent State University and TechnoDisplay ASA has resulted in the creation of high performance flexible bistable displays. While the bistable SmA (EASL DMD™) technology offers a more simplified display mode, long term stability, and an excellent contrast, the PDLC technology provides simplicity of manufacturing while maintaining the standard characteristics and strength of the display. Along with their lighter weight, the flexible display prototypes demonstrate high contrast ratio, excellent viewing angle characteristics, low power consumption, and a long lifetime.
