Carl Zeiss Cinemizer 3D Plus glasses get OLED infusion, still no attention

Carl Zeiss Cinemizer 3D Plus glasses get OLED infusion, still no attention

Carl Zeiss keeps on making minor improvements to its Cinemizer head-mounted display, announced way back in 2008 and intended to be the most amazing way to watch stuff on your iPod. They didn’t exactly catch on then, and two years later we’re not entirely sure that the latest revision will either. The tiny screens that sit a fraction of an inch from your eyeballs have been upgraded to OLED, which should make them bright and lovely as they pummel your rods and cones, but sadly they’re still stuck in VGA land — 640 x 480 is not a lot of pixels these days. This version also pledges greater compatibility with non-Apple devices, a welcome change, and even more welcome is the new visual styling, which makes you look a little less walleyed than the last model. Despite this the price hasn’t changed much, estimated to be around €400 ($515), but that’s still a lot to pay just to have the coolest Frozone costume ever.

Nanotechnology enables ultra high-def LCDs, cheaper stacked-electrode OLED screens

Pixel density enthusiasts, pay close attention, because science is ready to blow your minds — the University of Michigan has developed an LCD technology that can display their logo in a space just nine microns high. By creating a filter made of microscopic metal gratings with differently sized holes just a few hundred nanometers wide, researchers discovered they could precisely capture wavelengths associated to red, green and blue light, producing pixels roughly eight times smaller than those in the iPhone 4′s famous screen, and entire images that could practically fit inside a single dot of Kopin’s microdisplay.

Meanwhile, OLEDs (which don’t require filters to produce their color) saw a nanotech breakthrough of their own last week, as a group at the University of Florida have discovered that carbon nanotubes can revitalize a once-inefficient but promising vertical stacking technique. Layering thin sheets of aluminum, carbon nanotubes, organic material and finally gold on top of a glass substrate, scientists have created OLEDs that promise to be cheaper, faster and require one-tenth of the power of those using polycrystalline silicon, and could theoretically be printed as a flexible display as well. Here’s hoping we’ll see the fruits of these fellows’ labors soon — we can’t wait to pen a follow-up to this epic fight.

OLED Shortage Forces HTC To Switch Displays

Smartphone maker HTC is switching back to older LCD technology for some of its smartphones because of a shortage of active-matrix OLED displays. The new crop of HTC phones coming this summer will include a technology called SLCD, or Super LCD, instead of the newer organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays used in several current-model smartphones, including the HTC Desire and the Google-designed, HTC-built Nexus One. HTC says SLCD will give consumers a visual experience comparable to HTC’s current 3.7 inch OLED displays. SLCDs will also offer better battery performance, contrast and more natural balanced color than AMOLED displays , says the company. “HTC is experiencing high-demand for many of our phones, specifically our phones with 3.7-inch displays,” Peter Chou, CEO of HTC said in a press release. “The new SLCD display technology enables us to ramp up our production capabilities quickly to meet the high demand.” But just what exactly is Super LCD technology? Two analysts Wired.com spoke with say it may just be a marketing jargon for a variant of the traditional thin-film transistor liquid crystal display ( TFT-LCD ) that powers almost all mobile displays currently on the market. “There’s Super AMOLED, Super IPS and now Super LCD,” says  Raymond Soneira, president of research and consulting firm DisplayMate Technologies. “Its like eggs in a supermarket: You can’t buy a small egg anymore. They all start at medium.” When Google launched its Nexus One phone, the device’s AMOLED screen made a splash because of its vivid colors. Unlike LCDs, AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) screens are not backlit, which means they were expected to consume less power than traditional LCDs. But they have also been plagued by problems. AMOLED screens are more difficult to read in bright sunlight when compared to LCDs. The screens are also more expensive and their supply is limited, says Jennifer Colegrove, director at DisplaySearch. “AMOLED is about 20 to 50 percent more expensive than LCD,” she says, “and currently only three companies–Samsung, LG and CMEL–supply it.” Meanwhile, Samsung has developed the Super-AMOLED display to reduce some of these flaws, make the OLED screens thinner and improve on their visibility in direct sunlight. But Super-AMOLED displays are proving to be an even scarcer component for handset makers. HTC says the SLCD technology it is using as an substitute can meet its demand without significantly sacrificing quality. SLCD is an improvement over most other LCD panels because it provides approximately five times better power management and offers wider viewing angles, says HTC. But those claims have yet to be tested. Details about the SLCD technology itself are scarce and further muddled by a joint venture that Samsung and Sony set up a few years ago that has the same name.  In 2004, the two companies set up a joint manufacturing venture for LCD screens and called it S-LCD. The manufacturing facility initially produced LCD screens for TVs but later began focusing extensively on mobile devices. Until now, SLCD was used to refer to the name of the Samsung-Sony manufacturing plant, rather than a specific technology, says Soneira. But if you are itching to see the difference among all the display technologies for yourself, Mobile Tech World has linked to a video comparison of Sony SLCD vs AMOLED and Super AMOLED. In the video, an HTC Desire phone sporting the new SLCD panel is pitted against a Nexus One with the AMOLED display, a Motorola Droid with IPS (in-plane switching, a kind of LCD technology used by many TVs as well as Apple’s iPad ), and a Samsung Wave with a Super-AMOLED display. “I thought all the displays were really good, they all had decent color and respectable viewing angles,” says a user who did the comparison on Howard-Forums . “The super AMOLED was noticeably less reflective than the others and was blacker with the best viewing angles. Super LCD had a superior horizontal viewing angle compared to a regular AMOLED display. The AMOLED had slightly better blacks  and slightly better vertical viewing angles. Both Super LCD and AMOLED were very reflective.” Check out the video: Photo: ( spieri_sf/Flickr ) Read the rest of this entry »

3-D: Coming Soon to a Cellphone Near You

If 3-D in movies make you sick and 3-D TVs seem out of this world for your living room, consider a 3-D cellphone. It’s not that far-fetched. Nintendo has already debuted the Nintendo 3DS , a handheld game console that sports a 3.5-inch 3-D display — about the same size as modern smartphones. With fast graphics processing capabilities and a screen technology that can produce 3-D effects without requiring consumers to wear any special glasses, cellphones might just be the latest frontier for the third dimension. “One hundred percent of handset manufacturers are evaluating 3-D behind the scenes,” says James Bower, president of MasterImage 3-D, a Burbank, California, company that makes 3-D displays. “Everyone wants a glasses-free 3-D experience. The first 3-D cellphone could be available in the United States next year, he says. As cellphone processors become more powerful and telecom carriers introduce 4G networks capable of transporting more data, 3-D could charm consumers who are looking for more entertainment and functionality from their handheld devices. Last year, Japanese wireless carrier KDDI started selling the first commercially available 3-D cellphone, called the Hitachi Woo. More than 300,000 devices were sold in in just a few weeks. The Woo’s 3-D display, powered by masterImage, uses a parallax barrier, a layer that’s placed over an LCD screen to help produce the feeling of depth by directing slightly different images to each eye. “We can create a 3-D experience in pretty much any kind of screen including LCD and OLED,” says Bowers. 3-D films such as Avatar and Alice in Wonderland have sparked consumer interest in the format. Most major TV makers including Sony, LG, Panasonic and Mitsubishi have started selling 3-D TVs . ESPN launched a 3-D channel in time for the football World Cup. Even PC makers have hopped on to the trend with the launch of computers with 3-D displays . But the real driver of 3-D content is expected to be amateur photos, video and gaming. Last month, Nintendo announced its new gaming system called the Nintendo 3DS portable . The Nintendo 3DS lets gamers see a rich 3-D display in their hand without the need for any special glasses. Gadget Lab got a chance to play with the Hitachi Woo. The Woo has a flip-out screen so when opened it looks a lot like a small portable DVD player. Some 3-D content, such as clips from the Shrek movie and a video of bubbles floating in air offered a better 3-D experience than, say, a music video. Overall, the 3-D effect on the Woo’s 3-inch display isn’t eye-popping in the same way as on a TV screen or as enveloping as in a movie theater. But it is real and and it works. It’s convenient because you don’t need glasses to view the 3-D effect. A button on the keyboard lets you switch back to the standard 2-D view so you can scroll through the user interface on the device. The downside: The videos seemed dull and the display didn’t have the intensity you can expect to see with a Nexus One or the iPhone. Watching 3-D clips on the device after a minute or so also made me want to look away from the screen. MasterImage’s 3-D technology that’s used in the Woo is similar to what display maker Sharp has created for Nintendo’s 3DS Portable. Both use the concept of a parallax barrier. A layer of material with a number of small, precise slits is placed on top of a display. The slits direct light from each image slightly differently creating a “sweet spot” that can range from 12 inches to 20 inches in front of the screen. At the sweet spot, the brain sees two slightly offset images that it can use to create a composite with the perception of depth. MasterImage says the 3-D layer adds about $10 to $15 to the overall bill of materials for the phone. “Only one person who’s holding the phone can see the 3-D effect,” says Bowers, “but we have created a good sweet spot so there’s no struggling to find the the right position.” That doesn’t mean the results are perfect, but it’s good enough to experience 3-D without requiring cumbersome glasses or extremely sophisticated technology. But the ease of use comes at a price. Adding a layer on top of the LCD or OLED screen reduces brightness by up to 50 percent and resolution by almost the same number. Bowers says the additional information that the brain perceives because of depth helps make up for some of that. “Technically you are losing resolution but psychologically you are gaining a lot more information,” he says.
