Abstract

The present invention relates to an elongated display fiber (1) comprising a plurality of electro luminescent pixel elements (2) distributed along the length of said fiber (1). The fiber (1) further comprises an electrical conductor matrix (3) consisting of intersecting row (R1-Rn) and column (C 1-Cn) conductors disposed along the length of said fiber (1). An electrical connection (4) exist between each said intersection of said row (R1,Rn) and column (C1-Cn) conductors and a respective one of said electro luminescent pixel elements (2). Each respective said electro luminescent pixel element (2) can be caused to emit light through selective application of electrical signals to a respective combination of one of said row (R1-Rn) conductors and one of said column (C1-Cn) conductors. The present invention further relates to a display apparatus (6) comprising at least one elongated display fiber (1) according to the present invention.

Description

technical field [0001] This patent application relates to elongated display fibers, and displays comprising a plurality of such elongated display fibers. Background technique [0002] Electronic displays are used to present various forms of displayed information, such as text, graphics, and video, to users as pixelated images. Rendering pixelated display information may be an essential function of electronic devices, as is often the case with personal computers. Pixelated display information can also be used to enhance features of the electronic device, such as enabling interaction between the user and the electronic device. [0003] A variety of electronic display technologies are available, each with specific properties that limit their application. Cathode ray tubes (CRTs), for example, are widely used in computer monitors and televisions. CRT has good color, contrast and brightness, and is a mature and economical technology. CRTs are not particularly compact, limited...
