Thread: Patent in the works! :D

Andy - no worries. I'm shooting from the hip for the most part in regards to Samsung, but with enough persistence I'll locate the proper person.

Groove - not really a genius, just lucky.

Congrats. So this is glass that has a display and can be used as a touch screen?. Is that right? How did you sweet talk samsung into working with you?

It's glass that has a couple of thin plastic films applied to it. The films enable media to play (on the glass) with touch capability. Turn it off, and you can see through the window. Turn it on, and it looks like the Minority Report (or Iron Man). Same concept, but you just need your fingers. No gloves.

ok i know this will sound dumb but when i see badass tech like this...all i think about is how i can implement this on a bike.

i know i know its too early.

Actually, this is valuable input. I encourage anyone with pertinent applications or thoughts/ideas to shoot me a PM. The more the merrier. Even if you think it seems completely outlandish, it can help me with R&D for different markets and such.

Applications are truly endless. Museums, maps, handheld devices (although Samsung has this on lock), airports, sliding glass doors, entertainment venues, etc. Besides the "locations", think about the "applications". A mall directory that you can interact with. Something that's outside. Don't worry - it's all plastic encased. You can literally smack it with a hammer and nothing happens since there are no breakable particles in the film. Search YouTube for OLED demos where they bend and smash it... but it still works flawlessly.

Oh the possibilities.

i was thinking heads up display on a windscreen...but glass would be too heavy..plexiglass would work great.

It can be applied to plexi too. You're in luck!
