Flexible displays move from concept to reality

Nishant discusses the innovations in flexible display technology, which have led to the development of screens that can bend, curve and even roll, opening up new design possibilities. Flexible display technology can apply to various applications, from smartphones and wearables to automotive displays. Flexible displays have come a long way since the first curved screens and recent developments have made it possible to create displays that are foldable, rollable and stretchable. Among the key technical advances is the use of flexible substrates, which have revolutionized display technology, playing a pivotal role in the evolution of flexible displays. Advances in materials science have been instrumental in this development, transforming how electronic components are integrated into displays.
