Sections of the screen can be inflated and deflated by the liquid. They are hard to handle.
Researchers Craig Schultz and Chris Garrison of the Future Interfaces Group (FIG) at Carnegie Mellon University have created a small type of shape-shifting display using built-in electroosmotic pumps. The developers reported this on their website.
Embedded electro-osmosis pumps are arrays of liquid pumps in a thin layer embedded in a sensor device, such as a smartphone or car display, experts say.
When an on-screen element requires a button, the liquid fills a portion of the layer, and the top panel folds to take that shape.
They are directly powered by applied voltages, 1.5mm thick, and allow for full stacks less than 5mm thick. However, they can move the entire volume of liquid in one second.
When the software exits the program, it returns to the display plane.
Earlier it was reported that South Korean auto parts manufacturer Hyundai Mobis Co has developed the first movable display for cars.
