What does the Mirasol tech qualify as? Do you know anything about the LG technology they are licensing?

Mirasol is a different beast called IMOD (interferometric modulation), made up largely of tiny mirrors.
LiquavistaBright and related techs are called "electrowetting".
It's hard to say exactly what LG intends to do with PVI beyond a supply relationship, and the article that stated LCD licensing was remarkably unclear, perhaps to the point of being incorrect.
Edit: Just re-read the WSJ article...seems LG is gonna make use of some of Hydis's tech that might be useful for their transflective stuff.
Addendum: A brief article that summarizes some of the advantages of the LG/PVI deal can be found at
