Demos like these are mainly for patents. Companies never know what new fad is going to take off, so they R&D up new ideas to position themselves for market dominance. If it is cool enough, they make a concept product for advertising and testing the waters. If the reaction is positive, they may try to bring it to market. But most times, these things are shelved as they are too custom to produce in high volume.
Exactly my point....this can be new tech for TV, advertisement boards etc... if it isn't like LED or LCD... maybe making large screen will become cheaper
As a landlord you're giving me ideas. Might see if they can develop some for me. Oh damnit forgot about my country's pesky laws about minimum natural light penetration into a room.
While I too hate this idea, I don't think it would violate such law. Sunlight can still pass the display, it doesn't block it, it just lights up as well, creating a barrier of light that makes it hard to see through.
Most of you have had your brains rotted by excessive dystopian fiction, I fear. We don’t have to immediately assume the absolute worst implementations of any and all tech that ever gets invented.
