In what is most likely a glimpse of the future of computer displays, Sony has debuted a flexible TV screen. It’s only 2.5 inches wide, but it has big promise. Sony has been working on screens made with organic light-emitting diodes for some time to produce paper-thin displays as well as save energy, notes CNET.
The company claims to have developed a new technology that uses plastic instead of glass to make OLED screens that can actually bend (hopefully without breaking), according to Pink Tentacle. The 2.5-inch prototype weighs only 0.053 ounces.
