OLED Passports By Samsung
Samsung SDI and Bundesdruckerei from Germany, have designed a passport with a 700 ?m polycarbonate data page. This new travel document will feature an active matrix bendable 300 ?m OLED display which will show airport officials info and pictures related to the passport holder.
The ePassport does generate concerns that it can be hacked regardless of Samsung’s claims that its is completely manipulation-proof. This passport will not run with batteries but will work buy induction generated electricity from the airports check point.

Wallpaper That Lights Up Your Room
Imagine having a wallpaper that lights up your house. Well you do not have to imagine any more. Jonas Samson, an interior designer from the Netherlands, has came up with new kind of wallpaper that lights up your room and your life. Jonas designed this as part of his final-year postgraduate degree and that alone is very promising. This 2D light source uses light emitting diodes (LEDs), that have little power consumption at low cost. To create conventional items into works of high tech design is certainly a unique skill and we are looking forward for Jonas next idea.
This innovative idea will soon become an every day reality when the Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLED) technology become more commercial. See a video of Anil Duggal of GE Global Research who explains the idea behind OLEDs
