Multilayer display screen technology now ready for mobile handheld market

28 June 2006 Opto-Electronics

PureDepth, a developer of display technologies and the developer of the multilayer display (MLD) technology, has released its innovative visual display technology for integration into an array of mobile handheld devices. With the addition now of the mobile MLD technology to the company's recently-announced wide-screen 30" MLD, the breadth of MLD devices span all form factors.

"With so much information being driven to mobile phones, music players, and the like, we believe that an MLD-enabled device will allow users to interact with multiple streams of content simultaneously, ultimately enhancing their experience. Imagine being able to watch your favourite music video and also receive messages at the same time without any interruption," said Fred Angelopoulos, CEO of PureDepth.

MLD technology is an LCD layered, multidimensional (using real depth between two or more LCD panels) viewing innovation that enables users to simultaneously view two separate fields of data. By overlaying two or more separate image planes within a single monitor, MLD provides true depth of vision that significantly enhances the visual experience with faster response to time critical data, according to the company.

With two LCD screens, the back LCD can be used for graphics, video, etc, while the front LCD can be used for text interfaces, messaging, alerts, etc. For example, gaming applications can use the front display as the alert and navigation system for additional 'heads-up' display while maintaining the back LCD for game play and graphics.
