Displays become thinner, sharper, lighter.

The displays on next-generation electronic devices will be brighter and use less power, thanks to advances in light-emitting diode technology. Coming soon to a cell phone, mp3 player, or electric shaver near you is the polymer organic light-emitting diode (P-OLED). The new displays are top-emitting

rather than backlit, so they can be extremely thin. According to developers, they offer several advantages over liquid crystal displays, such as sharper picture image and graphics, higher contrast ratios, superior video response time, wider viewing angle, and a slimmer, more flexible profile, making it suitable for such applications as wearable devices.
