Samsung Display has long been a pioneer when it comes to creative display concepts, but at CES 2025, it showed off a prototype that just might be mind-boggling enough to steal the show. Imagine you’re watching a movie in 3D, but instead of needing glasses for the depth effect, the display can actually pop out toward you — that’s the kind of future I caught a glimpse of with what’s currently being called Stretchable MicroLED.
Stretchable MicroLED is mostly what it sounds like, but whatever you’re picturing, make it like 5 times more miniature. The demo consisted of a screen no larger than 6 inches bulging out from an eye-level height hole in a wall. It cycled through aerial footage of the famous Las Vegas Sphere (apt of course, given the location of CES), with the screen curving outward along the venue’s outline.
