SEOUL , South Korea , Nov. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Display, the world's leading innovator of display technologies, announced today its unveiling of the world's first Stretchable display capable of expanding up to 50%, the highest rate of elongation in the industry. At LG Science Park in Seoul on Nov.
8 , the company demonstrated the panel at a meeting of more than 100 South Korean industry, academia, and research stakeholders involved in a Stretchable display national project. Stretchable displays are seen as the ultimate free-form screen technology because they can be freely transformed into any shape, including by stretching, folding, and twisting. The new prototype features a 12-inch screen that stretches up to 18 inche s , while simultaneously delivering a high resolution of 100ppi (pixels per inch) and full red, green, and blue (RGB) color.
Compared to the first Stretchable display prototype unveiled in 2022, the new panel's maximum elongation rate has more than doubled from 20% to 50%. This enhanced stretchability enables various display design possibilities, raising the technology's potential competitiveness when commercialized. By applying a number of new technologies, such as improving the properties of a special silicon material substrate used in contact lenses and developing a new wiring design structure, LG Display improved the panel's stretchability and flexibility, exceeding the original national project's target of 20% elongation.
