MicroEmissive Displays’ eyescreen™ products are the world’s only polymer organic light emitting diode (P-OLED) microdisplays. The full colour eyescreen™ combines superb TV quality moving video images that are free from flicker, with ultra-low power consumption, enabling greatly extended battery life for the user. This enhancement in battery usage time made possible by the eyescreen™ will play a vital role in the widespread adoption of portable devices for personal TV and video viewing in the consumer marketplace. The innovative design of the eyescreen™, with its integrated driver ICs and its digital interface, offers product design engineers a fast, robust design-in solution for smaller, lighter-weight, stylish products of the future, all for a size comparable with the pupil of the human eye.

The tiny eyescreen™ microdisplay with a 6 mm (0.24”) diagonal pixel array can be combined with magnifying optics to produce a large virtual image, that appears to the eye to be equivalent in dimensions to the picture on a TV screen or computer display. This attribute makes the eyescreen™ ideal for portable Head Mounted Displays and Electronic Viewfinders and it has already been incorporated into a variety of near-to-eye video imaging products, including digital still cameras and night vision systems.

Explosive growth is predicted in the mobile TV and video content market and the market size is forecast to be £4.8 billion by 2010 (Source: Mobile Video and TV Content Strategies Informa). Consumer applications for video glasses and head-sets that will be enabled by the eyescreen™ include viewing DVDs and video clips via personal media players, such as MP4 and video iPod; playing hand-held electronic games; and watching TV and surfing the net via mobile phone. The eyescreen™ will transform the way we view TV and video on the move.
