You better get yourself a magnifying glass. Japan Display Inc. (JDI), a global leader in LCD technologies, has developed three display prototypes -- named "Innovation Vehicles" -- for smartphone, tablet, and automotive applications which will be shown at the FPD International 2012 exhibition in Yokohama, Japan.  The Innovation Vehicle for tablet applications features key technologies adopted into a 7.0-inch diagonal size module with high WQXGA resolution (2560 x 1600 pixels) and pixel density of 431ppi, with high contrast ratio of 2000:1 achieved by implementing new IPS technology, with low power consumption that is approximately 50% less by utilizing an RGBW pixel structure, with a thin module structure of only 1.3 mm thickness including an integrated touch function (without cover glass), and with a narrow border of 1.5 mm.

The Innovation Vehicle for smartphone applications features key technologies for forthcoming high-end smartphone applications adopted into a large 5.0-inch diagonal size module with full HD resolution (1080 x 1920 pixels) and pixel density of 438ppi^*2, with high contrast ratio of 2000:1^*3 achieved by implementing new in-plane switching (IPS) technology, with low power consumption that is approximately 50% less^*4 by utilizing an RGBW pixel structure, with a thin module structure of only 1.0 mm thickness including an integrated touch function (without cover glass), and with a narrow border of 1.0 mm.

The Innovation Vehicle for automotive applications features a 12.2-inch diagonal size module with 1920 x 720 pixels resolution. The display adopts advanced technologies desirable for next-generation automotive displays such as true-black appearance, styling design freedom enabled by corner cut and curved surface technologies, low power consumption (approximately 50% less^*4), and integrated touch function.

JDI will demonstrate these three Innovation Vehicles in booth #2701 at FPD International Japan 2012, held October 31 through November 2, 2012, in Pacifico Yokohama, Yokohama, Japan.
