Hexagonal Boron Nitride ( hBN ) which is sometimes referred to as ‘white graphene’ and graphene itself are very compatible when layered together, providing advantages in bonding strength.
Scientists have engineered a molecular soft cocrystalline structure that bends and twists reversibly and without disintegration. Such crystal it a robust candidate for advanced molecular electronics and other new materials.
Engineers have manufactured a flexible, optically rewritable liquid crystal display that is about as thin as a piece of paper. The flexible display technology could be a breakthrough in printed media.
Engineers have built a bright - light emitting device that is fully transparent when turned off. The light emitting material in this device is a monolayer semiconductor, which is just three atoms thick.
Device displays electrocardiogram recorded by skin sensor, holds promise for home healthcare applications.
Researchers in Tokyo accidentally discovered a self-healing material.
The company has also launched four pilot IMAX virtual reality (VR) experience centres in Los Angeles, New York City, Toronto and Shanghai.
New 'potato stamp' technique combining silver and graphene may create cheaper, more flexible and eco-friendly screens.
Our relationship with computation will be much more intimate as we enter the age of wearables.
Disney plans to make augmented reality a shared experience
A new type of 3-D display could solve the long-standing problem eye fatigue when using VR and AR equipment by greatly improving the viewing comfort of these wearable devices.
View Mixed Reality will bolster Windows 10’s virtual reality chops by letting view augmented reality images through their device screen.
Last week Sony launched a projector which turns any surface into a touchscreen. We ask designers how screenless technology could be used in the future.
Is flexible good enough though? Don’t we really want morphing, stretchable smart tablets that expand from a strap-hanging, one handed commuter-use form-factor, to lean-back reading and media consumption copious sizes?
The theater chain is working with movie studios to create short virtual reality experiences to go alongside a movie. IMAX wants to open six VR locations this year.
