Speaker: Candice Elliott (CEO Nouvoyance)(MSR-SVC)
Title: Pen Tile technology

Abstract: PenTile™ technology utilizes subpixel rendering to enable higher resolution displays. Since Samsung acquired this technology from Clairvoyante, Nouvoyance has continued the development of PenTile technology for a wide range of applications including cell phones, netbooks and TVs. Previously, Candice Elliott spoke about the RGBW versions of this technology as applied to LCDs. In this presentation she will focus on PenTile OLED. Currently, the greatest market adoption has been for PenTile OLED in cell phones like the Google Nexus One, where PenTile OLED is now in ~25% of all wVGA cell phones. Candice will discuss PenTile OLED technology explaining the merits of using PenTile technology for VGA and wVGA OLEDs in handheld products. She will discuss the resolution spec and the factors related to human vision that make this design well suited to the human vision system. Following the talk she will show demos of the technology.
