By Anil Sharma TMCnet Contributing Editor
iView Limited has selected Displaytech’s new generation LightView LDP-SVGA micro display for their Pico-projector that will be demonstrated at CES’ (News - Alert)08.
Displaytech says it improves display-based products by providing cost-advantaged microdisplays that deliver brilliant, real-life, digital images and enable the creation of next-generation consumer electronics and data storage products.
Displaytech’s Ferroelectric Liquid Crystal on Silicon (FLCOS) technology enables light switching at speeds 100 times faster than other liquid crystals, making possible the creation of microdisplays that deliver unsurpassed image resolution, power efficiency and ease of manufacturability, according to the company.
“We are very happy with the high image resolution, compact form factor, and vivid colors that can be achieved by our Pico-projector using Displaytech’s FLCOS microdisplay”, iView CEO, Dr. Steve Yeung said in a press release. “We are very confident that the combined effort between the two companies will result in commercialization of the technology in 2008.
Displaytech’s Ferroelectric liquid-crystal-on-silicon (FLCOS) technology that gives iView a projector with unsurpassed image resolution, power efficiency and compact form factor is advantaged in its compact size, extremely low power consumption at less than 100mw, and best performance in terms of lumen per watt which enables Pico-projector design compact and bright with minimum power, said Yeung.
Founded in 1985, Displaytech has shipped over 14-million devices to some of the world’s premier consumer electronics companies. Displaytech’s customers include JVC, Kodak, Olympus, Hitachi (News - Alert), Konica Minolta, Kyocera and Hewlett-Packard.
“We are very excited that iView selected our microdisplay for their Pico-projector,” said Displaytech CEO, Richard Barton. “Displaytech’s microdisplay performance and iView’s proprietary optical design are combined to create a Pico-projector which will be embedded into cell phone and other mobile communication devices.”
Currently Displaytech is offering solutions including digital eyewear modules for gaming, portable video, digital TV, and various 3D applications, Pico-projectors for connection to mobile phones, PDA, video game consoles, iPoD video, and other MP4 players, and projection modules to be embedded in PDA and cell phones, portable DVD players, digital cameras, camcorders, and notebook computers.
iView is currently developing projection modules for automotive industry, for projection of GPS information onto automobile windshields.
