Hewlett Packard which is better known by the initialization HP is one company that geeks must watch out for. See-through screens, which sci-fi movies are often filled with are the next hot thing that HP will get to the consumers. Hewlett Packard has been able to secure a US patent for this innovative and fiction-inspired technology. It means that in near future these kinds of see-through screens will revolutionize things like navigation and analysis.
Since two decades HP has been trying to get to the see-through technology in a perfect way. HP is not the only one in this race as Samsung is also working on the development of technology on the same lines. Many concepts and designs have been hitting the market that boasts about see-through technology but HP is the first one to get a US patent for it now.
Let’s now talk about the functionality of such screen through which one can actually see! With these kinds of see-through-screens users would be able to get the directions while driving and that too on their windshields. Another brilliant and innovative use that this technology can give you in future is that you can hold it up to some object or something and the screen will display the information relative to that object or thing. Isn’t that fascinating?
As per the patent there is a particular mechanism to create such screen. There is at least one series of slats just like the vertical blinds; and these will be held together by two layers of transparent material. Where one side the blinds will help users to see the object placed behind the screen, they will also let the light to be reflected so that a user can see the texted display and the graphics.
