In collaboration with private company Meta2People, the so-called NTS (Nano Transparent Screen) display developed at the Korea Institute of Technology KIMM may soon go into production. The 100-inch display is a thick, almost film-like material, and its transparency can be adjusted at will. The display delivers a clear image even when exposed directly to the light of a projector, for example, with a completely matte setting. The viewing angle is 170 degrees on both planes.
The basis of NTS operation is the so-called polymer-solvent liquid crystal (PDLC) film, the transparency of which can be electrically controlled.
Transparent OLED video walls of similar size are currently available for around HUF 25 million. According to KIMM staff, the new NTS costs about a tenth of that, since it is relatively simple to produce. In addition, it tolerates cold and heat well, so it can be used both indoors and outdoors.
NTS's manufacturing technology is a cutting-edge technology based on nanomaterials, nanofabrication and current information technology. In the future, we will research and develop better quality NTS systems and enhance transparent displays.
“This is a very important finding,” said Jun Ho Jeong, a senior researcher at KIMM, in his statement.
