Revisit Fraunhofer's PR on High Brightness OLED Microdisplays

acquires a little more je ne c'est quoi, piquancy?, savor? in light of the fact that Fraunhofer and eMagin have a Gentleman's Bet on who will get accomplish the Direct Pattern High Brightness Display first. I wonder if Vegas has a prop wager on this, no, maybe the Irish Bookies. No Pete Rose complications, eMagin bet on themselves.

Fraunhofer COMEDD in collaboration with its partner Orthogonal Inc. (Rochester, NY) explores novel approach for OLED micro-structuring, which is called Orthogonal Photolithography. "Orthogonal Photolithography is a patented technology, which allows direct patterning of organic material on CMOS-backplanes.", explains Dr. Alexander Zakhidov, leader of the development group. "So, high-resolution OLED microdisplays for head-mounted displays and data eye-glasses with brightness of 5000 cd/m² are now possible." Such high brightness micro-displays are required for augmented reality applications where the virtual image has to blend in smoothly with the daylight environment."
