Novel Devices Laboratory - Activities. Our large area, pixelation-free, optical shutter is shown below in operation. The substrate is held vertically (gravity does not effect the performance). We also are developing novel light-valve approaches with commercial partners such as Sun Chemical (see second video, technology not disclosed). An electrowetting dielectric that self-heals even when punctured! See our publications page to find out how it works… (work performed in collaboration with Stein Kuiper and Philips Research Labs). See below videos of our switchable retroreflector film illuminated in the infrared (night-vision) and in the visible spectrum while immersed in water (green light). The third video is yet another mechanism to switch the retroreflector where we put switchable opaque oil films (blue in this test) inside each cornercube retroreflector.
Yes… Some work we are doing with AFRL that feeds into our biosensor program. This was our very first 25 PPI demonstrator for our electrowetting imaging film. AAXA P1 Jr Ultra Portable Pico Pocket Projector, LED, Media Player, Speaker, iPhone Compatible: Electronics. 'Paper iPhone' could be next mobile revolution - Technology & science - Innovation. A pocket-sized computer as thin and flexible as a sheet of paper is set to be unveiled next week. While it's just a prototype, the researchers say the bendy souped-up smartphone could revolutionize the way we interact with computers.
Called PaperPhone, the new device is a flexible version of e-ink, the digital ink screen found in e-readers such as the Amazon Kindle. "This computer looks, feels and operates like a small sheet of interactive paper,” said lead PaperPhone creator Roel Vertegaal, the director of Queen's University Human Media Lab. “You interact with it by bending it into a cell phone, flipping the corner to turn pages, or writing on it with a pen. " The researchers have built a prototype phone -- a 3.7-inch (9.5-cm) diagonal e-ink display -- and taken it for a test drive. The device was used to navigate through a menu of contacts, make calls, select songs and perform various other tasks.
When the Kindle was first introduced, it was touted as a paperlike computer. Museum Utimate Holograms. Fogscreen projection. VMS@ HEWLETT PACKARD. Laser animation. Interactive ART.
