What a consumer basically wants to be able to read in a tablet type device are interactive magazines and all its variations, but also electronic books. To little time reading and interior, a classic tablet LCD screens may be worth, but when we want little fatigue on sight and autonomy, electronic ink is a must.

The last patent that has been discovered to Apple demonstrates that in Cupertino don't forget the possibility of combining several types of display on a single device. That future tablet, if it is ever to see the light, would have a layer with touch LCD technology and the other with electronic ink. If you think that it is difficult to make, just think the work of Samsung with its transparent screens. What you see now?

In the idea of Apple, the user would not have to change technology him but that the own tablet would choose the best option dynamically according to the content that we are going to play.

As of combine LCD screen and electronic ink is not something new. Hence we have the phantom tablet Notion Ink Adam Pixel Qi technology. Who will be the first to get effectively?

We are not going to discover anything if we say that Samsung is one of the leaders in the market of screens and in the development of their technologies. The Korean company is responsible for in addition to advertise it in the different technological events that occurs.

Sometimes in commercial products, others in the form of prototype to dazzle the staff, this is the case of flexible displays, and the transparent which showed over the past year.

Samsung has decided to bring to production a transparent screen, a 22-inch LCD panel with 1680 × 1050 pixel resolution. There will be two versions, one color and one black and white, with a 15-20% transparency respectively.

From the point of view of consumption, Samsung advises that the screens they need 10% of the energy used by a conventional LCD, because somehow it takes advantage of the ambient light (I guess that a good lighting is required). Other interesting values are their levels of contrast, 500: 1, HDMI, and ports USB.

Curious that Samsung has decided to take advantage of this technology in a screen of considerable dimensions, and not one of their most powerful departments, on mobile devices. We remind you that sony ericsson already placed on the market a phone with a similar screen, the Xperia Pureness.

Samsung also has transparent panels in the oven, but instead of LCD as that here, with technology AMOLED, but for this still todavía queda is quite some time, for now I leave you with some videos:
