Although this news is not directly linked to the world Samsung, the Korean manufacturer that is precisely at this moment is in the forefront in the development of flexible displays. Imagination of many flexible display is equivalent to smartphones and devices able to bend and change its form if necessary and not highly resistant device capable of withstanding torsion and blows particular. The image of the concept in the opening article is significant in practice and shows how it could be the future of mobile devices. At Nokia World last year we were able to touch a project that Nokia saw absolutely a flexible screen in action and we were pleasantly surprised. So although the flexible screens are already a reality, but not mass still present in the various laboratories and Samsung, the main problem are the other components that need to flex exactly how the display. If the shell if you can find different solutions, hardware, motherboards, and batteries seem especially difficult to "bend".
Arrives, however, a very interesting project which in fact approaches the realization of temporally device shapeshifting. We speak of a flexible battery can be folded, elongated and arched without problems and without the latter losing efficacy. The following video shows the operation:
Hard to say at the moment as a battery of this type can offer in terms of autonomy, but it is a concrete step in the direction of the flexible smartphone which Samsung is now leading the industry although it is still a market that needs to go. The screens are there, even the batteries: the next step will be the hardware and the cost reduction for mass production at commercial level. 2014 too early? Do not just have to wait!
