3D displays made from flexible fiber?

Could new light-carrying fiber technology be the future of 3D display panels? A team of researchers associated with MIT’s Research Laboratory of Electronics (RLE) believe so.

A paper published recently on the Nature Photonics website suggests that a new material, woven from specialist flexible fibers, could be used within future generations of 3D displays. ...

“The coolest thing about this work, really, is the way it’s made,” says Marko Loncar, an associate professor at Harvard University. “The technology that they used to do it, basically, they can make kilometers of these things. It’s remarkable.”  ...
