26 Apr 10 Concept: Express yourself with these Transparent OLED Headphones
Here’s a cool concept that’s bound to become a reality one of these days. Designers from the
”Metatrend Institute” have created a novel way of showing off your musical, as well as personal tastes. The concept, simply called “transparent OLED Headphones”, allows the user to customize the OLED headband with any visualization of their choice. The flexible display can show album art, track info, or any message you want to share with the world. It even has a “rhythm sync” mode allowing the headband to change colors based on the type of music being played.
This headphone concept is just one offshoot of the upcoming flexible OLED trend that we’ll see in the future. The technology is certainly there to create these types of wearable displays, the only hurdle right now is cost. Once prices come down for flexible OLED’s, we can all fulfill our wishes of becoming human touchscreens..err..maybe that’s just my wish.
