Juergen Lumera of Bosch Automotive, where he is involved in technical documentation, started by saying its easier to get outsiders to introduce AR – insiders are not always trusted.

The success of mobile devices, we believe, is partly driven by the sensors that are available on them. The desktop has not had the same development in input – the keyboard and mouse remain the key input devices.

Initially, this generated some angst in the cadmium crowd, and some jubilation in the non-cadmium (that is, indium … Read more
You could make a case for Transparent Flexible Conductors (TFCs) based on thinness, lightweight and ruggedness even when they are being applied to displays with rigid substrates. Now that flexible displays are entering the marketplace in significant numbers, the case becomes even stronger. TFCs compete on a combination of cost (low is good), sheet resistance … Read more
Two developers caught my attention during my visit to the 2015 SID Display Week Innovation Zone (iZone).

The Redux Embedded Haptics Controller was being demonstrated on the firm’s tabletop display in the iZone. Redux Labs showed its tablet-sized touchscreen demonstrator (photo … Read more
The 2015 SID Display Week Wearable-Flexible Market Focus Conference hosted a session and panel discussion on Software for Wearables with speakers from Mozilla, Intel, and Runtastic. At this point in the penultimate session of the Wearables-Flexible Conference, I found that I was really happy to have dedicated so much time (a full day) and attention … Read more

This week, we have been very busy following up the SID show and we are just finalising the report as I write this article. Now I’m away from it, it’s getting clearer what the big trends were. We saw some stunning high resolution displays, at over 900 ppi at the extreme. So, to me, this … Read more
