The advance of touch screen technology continues to be a rising trend in today’s culture. We see it now on laptops, cell phones, ATM terminals and devices like the iPad. Furthermore, transparent display screens are also becoming popular. We’ve seen them portrayed along with the touch screen in movies such as Minority Report and Avatar. So, touch sensitive transparent screens are starting to appear on some of the newest mobile devices in development. Now the Korean company, NeoView Kolon is poised to enter this new trend with their latest creation.

They call it this new technology, T-OLED (transparent OLED). NeoView Kolon currently plans to use this technology in motor vehicles, providing motorists with a convenient way to view relevant information like traffic updates without being hindered by distractions while on the road. The company also intends to apply T-OLED to mobile and home devices as well.

NeoView Kolon recently appeared at the FilmTech conference in Japan and presented a 2.4 inch transparent AMOLED for head-mounted displays. However, there is no information about availability of this technology to the consumer yet. Nevertheless, transparent display and touch screen technology could become a standard for electronic devices in the near future.
