Mitsubishi OLED globe is a sight to behold

While flexible displays are something that do have that “Wow!” factor when you lay your eyes on them, how about curved displays? Surely those warrant at least some kind of attention not only from you, but from folks who walk past, right? Well, Mitsubishi knows how you would feel if you could get wrap your hands around a curved display, which is why they came up with the OLED globe at the national Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation in Tokyo, measuring a cool six meters in diameter.

Also known as the OLED “Geo-Cosmos” display, it will be unveiled at the museum as part of the world's first large-scale spherical OLED screen this coming June 11th. The globe itself will hold 10,362 PMOLED panels, where each of them measure a diminutive 96 x 96 millimeters.

This was made possible thanks to Mitsubishi Electric's scalable OLED technologies, where it will replaces a globe which comprised of light emitting diodes (LEDs) to commemorate the museum's 10th anniversary. The globe won't show off ads – no sir, it will instead display scenes of clouds and other visions of the earth which were taken from a meteorological satellite. All projections will be at least 10 million pixels in resolution, making it around 10 times greater than that of the LED display. Impressive, no?
