Emissive Projection Display by Ted Sun, Sun Innovations, Free-form, High Contrast, for Automotive

Ted Sun, the founder and president of Sun Innovations in Fremont, California sun-innovations.com/ introduces a groundbreaking technology called emissive projection display at • Display Week 2024 This technology can transform any glass window into a fully transparent emissive display with unlimited viewing angles. The core of this innovation lies in a special type of window film that illuminates under the extension of power from LED or laser light sources. This film can be applied to glass windows in buildings and vehicles, including windshields, thereby converting them into full augmented reality displays visible to the naked eye.

The application of these films extends beyond just windows; they can also be used on any interior surface of a vehicle, turning it into an emissive display. This makes it possible to use the technology for various purposes, including information display and entertainment, without obstructing the view behind the glass. The films maintain full optical transparency, allowing for clear visibility while also providing the benefits of a high-quality emissive display. The technology supports full-color video, making it suitable for watching videos or other media as if on a traditional TV screen.
Sun demonstrates the use of a small laser projector to project images onto the film. The projector emits light that the film captures, resulting in a high-quality emissive image. This film not only blocks the projected image to prevent light leakage but also ensures there is no optical pollution. The clarity, brightness, and color quality of the projected images are maintained at a high level, with the transparency of the film exceeding 95%. Additionally, the film does not significantly increase the heat level, ensuring it remains safe for use in vehicles without compromising visibility or safety.
The films use nanophosphor materials, which contribute to their optical clarity and durability. They have been tested under automotive conditions, enduring over 3,000 hours without degradation and tolerating temperature extremes from -40 to +85 degrees Celsius. This durability ensures that the films can withstand harsh environmental conditions, such as the intense heat from direct sunlight on a car windshield, without suffering damage or loss of functionality.
Sun Innovations is actively seeking partnerships, particularly in the automotive and consumer electronics industries, to further develop and market this technology. They have received interest from various parties at events like Display Week, indicating a strong potential for widespread adoption. The films can be used with different types of projection technologies, including DLP and laser projectors, each having its own advantages. Laser projectors, for example, are more compact and focus-free, while DLP projectors offer more optical power.
The versatility of the emissive projection display technology opens up numerous creative possibilities. For instance, during events like Halloween, homeowners can project festive scenes onto their windows, easily winning neighborhood decoration competitions. The films can be temporarily applied and removed, allowing for seasonal or situational use. In urban settings, skyscrapers can use the technology to turn their windows into dynamic digital signage, creating stunning visual displays on their facades.
Despite the advanced technology and potential applications, Sun assures that the films are economical to mass-produce. This cost-effectiveness makes the technology accessible for a wide range of uses, from personal entertainment to large-scale commercial displays. By offering a combination of high-quality display capabilities and practical applications at a reasonable cost, Sun Innovations' emissive projection display technology stands to revolutionize the way we use and interact with transparent surfaces in both vehicles and buildings.

Thank you for covering all this new amaying display technology this week

[@visitrohitbag]

this guy shows some new tech, which no one else covers.

[@787PR]

Interesting 😮

[@antayudi5428]

Can it be front or rear projection?

[@innerrevision]

Why would he not have brought a pane of glass to demonstrate this tech instead of printing pics & putting them on a post board?

[@Robbie-mw5uu]

because the technology is not ready for the public to see yet

[@xxx077]

imagine a thermal camera on a car. able to see body heat at night while driving on your windscreen
