What makes current displays inflexible is the rigid lcd-style backplane that manufacturers add to e-ink's layer to control the pixels. Plastic Logic has developed some process so that the backplane is made of flexible organic transistors. There is a press release link in the above page that gives more details. |
What Plastic Logic developed was a method of using a plastic substrate instead of a glass one. Thus lending the screen a limited degree of flexibility. The "organic transistors" are what
Polymer Vision use to make their flexible displays rollable.
