The glass layers in today's cellphone displays appear to be nothing more than intelligent "dead bodies," but agencies, including Corning Incorporated, are now studying new sensor technologies that they are prepared to implant Glass, so that makes the glass with some intelligence, and is expected to play an important role in cell phone security.
In the current display of the glass layer, the screen assumes the function, it is only for display information and touch information through. However, in the future the screen glass will be implanted with more advanced technology.
According to technology news from the US tech news site Addiction, researchers at Montreal Polytechnic University in Canada have now developed sensors that can be implanted under Corning gorilla glass. As we all know, gorilla glass, is currently widely used in smart phones.
These sensors can "characterize" the outgoing waveguide inside the display glass so that changes in light and light can be tracked. In this way, the display can do the work that was traditionally done with connection wires and dedicated sensors.
In the future, cellphone displays can use light to monitor temperature, and in addition, a unique optical model can be embedded in the glass layer to allow the display screen to have a worldwide unique identity (similar to a car engine's serial number). Bad guys cloning a cell phone will be more difficult (because of the inability to clone the phone's screen).
Allegedly, in the above research project, a Corning company scientists also participated. However, Corning has yet to develop a plan to implant sensors in gorilla glass.
However, Montreal Polytechnic University is very confident in this technology, hoping to be able to use mobile phones within a year. At present, the research team is contacting the manufacturer of the smart phone screen to discuss the sensor implantation.
If some manufacturers enable this technology, in the future, consumers will see that the screen of the mobile phone will have the same intelligence as the mobile phone software and hardware system. (Dawn)
