摘要

The concept of 'Ambient Intelligence' predicts a future where consumer electronic appliances will be characterized by their being seen only when necessary. One of the few visible embodiments will be displays, which will be omnipresent yet still blend seamlessly into the background. This requires a breakthrough in low-cost, reel-to-reel mass production of flexible displays, based on printing technology. This presentation focuses on several key developments that will lead the way towards that goal.
