A Flat-screen TV That Can be Rolled up and Put in Your Pocket

The new technology which was developed by a team of British scientists is known as quantum dots and can be used to make ultra-thin televisions. It certainly is a step up from the super-thin OLED screen that was unveiled by Sony last year.

The quantum dot technology is light emitting particles which are 100,000 times smaller than the width of a human strand of hair will be printed onto flexible plastic that can be rolled up or even printed onto large sheets of paper to create giant screens.

The flexible screens are expected to take slightly longer and could be in the shops over the next three years. The company will not reveal exactly who they are working with but it is believed that Sony, Sharp, Samsung and LG are all working on quantum dot technology.
