Kodak and LG have just signed a contract enabling LG to use Kodak’s OLED technology in a number of electronic devices, ranging from cell phones to television sets. According to a report by Engadget, neither company has issued an official press release yet, but if the story is to be believed, you might soon see LG branded computer screens and TVs featuring OLED (organic light emitting diode) displays. This could be beneficial to both editing and viewing digital photos, as Kodak claims OLED screens have “unsurpassed contrast and luminance”, offer “lifelike colour reproduction, vibrancy and brightness”, and are “easier to see in changing ambient light contitions”. On the other hand, OLED screens have historically been criticised for having a much shorter lifespan than other types of display.
