Tokyo Univ: Flexible skin display: Successful full color
The University of Tokyo and Dai Nippon Printing:
We have evolved our own stretchable hybrid electronic packaging technology.
Thin, elastic, full-color skin display,
Display device that integrates drive, communication circuit, and power supply,
Successfully developed and manufactured (Photos 1 and 2)
Full-color skin display:
This device
For the display stuck on the skin,
You can display image messages sent from outside,
Communication system.
Todai team and DNP:
Currently, we are engaged in research and development of elastic devices.
This time, we have developed a thin and stretchable skin display with full-color LEDs.
Development history:
May 2009
The world’s first 16 x 16 organic EL displays that expand and contract (*1)
August 2016
7-segment display with ultra-thin organic EL elements with a thickness of 1 μm (Note 2)
February 2018
Announced the monochromatic skin display (Note 3), which was the pioneer of this research.
