Gauzy, Research Frontiers and LG Display Reveal at 2024 CES Show How to Make Transparent OLEDs Even Better by Integrating Research Frontiers SPD-Smart Film Technology

Las Vegas, Jan. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research Frontiers Inc. (Nasdaq: REFR), the inventor and licensor of patented SPD-Smart film light-control technology, and Gauzy Ltd., a fully-integrated light and vision control company and licensee of Research Frontiers’ SPD-Smart film light-control technology, announced today that they will demonstrate new LG Display Transparent OLED products at the 2024 CES (West Hall, Booth 6611). These products showcase the remarkable benefits of pairing SPD-Smart light control film with Transparent OLED technology.

In a collaboration among Gauzy, LG Display, and Research Frontiers, the fusion of SPD-Smart film and Transparent OLED screens is ushering in a new era of display innovation. This relationship has yielded Transparent OLEDs that are designed to offer unique advantages across industries with the goal to revolutionize consumer electronics, retail, and transportation, as well as in homes and offices.

Debuting for the first time, at Gauzy’s booth, there will be a 30-inch, LG Display Transparent OLED integrating SPD-Smart film. This innovative product allows the glass on the Transparent OELD to deliver sharp contrast displays, or a shaded area, on the window to block glare that disrupts eyesight and visual comfort. The 30-inch LG Display Transparent OLED product demonstrates some of the more widely known applications of Transparent OLED, including window displays in railway, retail, and entertainment systems.

This significant development of integrating SPD-Smart light control film expands beyond just televisions, showing further consumer and commercial uses of Transparent OLEDs. This combination of cutting-edge technologies allows displays to seamlessly blend with surroundings while delivering bright and vivid visual content for informational displays, messaging, and entertainment.

The high transparency of the display in transparent mode allows the SPD Transparent OLED to harmonize with its environment and unlike traditional screens, creates an open space with visibility to what is beyond the display. With Gauzy’s SPD, varying levels of contrast are added to the display for enhanced brightness in shifting lighting conditions.

SPD-Smart film contains embedded nanoparticles to instantly, precisely and dynamically control the amount of light and glare passing through glass or plastic. Integrated into and operated in synergy with Transparent OLED screens, the film, in real-time, instantly and automatically adjusts the level of light and glare passing through the Transparent OLED. This delivers benefits, including a superior contrast ratio under changing environmental light conditions. Using SPD-Smart film within the Transparent OLED, the amount of light and glare transmitted through the SPD-Smart film adjusts to the ideal level for maintaining an excellent contrast ratio and improved viewability.
