8.01” flexible AMOLED display for industrial applications
Crystal Display Systems (CDS) announces the launch of its 8.01” flexible AMOLED display, designed to meet the growing demand for versatile, high-performance display solutions across various industrial sectors.
The evolution of display technology
Flexible AMOLED technology represents a significant advancement in display design, replacing traditional rigid glass substrates with flexible polyimide films. This transition allows the displays to bend, fold, and roll without compromising performance. Unlike conventional displays, flexible AMOLED technology retains the core benefits of AMOLED – such as self-emissive pixels, high contrast ratios, and vibrant colours – while introducing superior mechanical flexibility and enhanced durability.
