Universal Display Corporation has showcased their wrist-worn flexible OLED display earlier this month at CES 2009. It was just a prototype, based on a 4-inch OLED display, that was shown at CES, and the device is claimed to be best used for military purposes.

This flexible wrist-worn display was initially developed for military use through a program sponsored by the U.S. Army Communication Electronics Research and Development Engineering Center (CERDEC). Universal Display Corp fabricated the prototype in collaboration with LG Display and L-3 Display Systems, as a complement to the flexible display development work ongoing at the U.S. Army’s Flexible Display Center at Arizona State University, of which Universal Display is a founding member.

And now UDC has announced that they’ve got a $1,089,600 new contract (SBIR III) from the United States Army to continue and develop this flexible wrisn-worn OLED display. This indicates that flexible OLED displays are given a good head start which has pretty promising future.
