“OLED+” Music
At the new Merck Innovation Center in Darmstadt, an interactive light installation opens up a new audio-visual experience. The light sculpture on the screen is connected by 576 OLED elements. 42 sensors distributed in the room allow sound and light to interact with each other, and the various changes in natural and synthetic light scenes and music styles make people's cognitive and emotional states like sleeping, dreaming, remembering, feeling, observing, thinking and playing. The combination of OLED lighting and 3D real-time simulation technology truly realizes the direct interaction between sound, lighting and the audience.
Speaking of the combination of OLED and music, there is also such an OLED device at the Nizhny Novgorod Music Festival in Russia - "X Amplifier".
It has simple and straightforward sounds, changing and flashing lights, waving lines, flipping lights, exciting visual effects and sounds. X represents human consciousness. The entire device uses OLED as a canvas, composes music with light, and draws a unique and beautiful picture.

“OLED+” Art
At the 2017 Milan Design Week, there was a large light installation called “Sense of the Future”. The installation was dotted with a number of chairs that looked ordinary, but actually had OLED screens built in. They seemed to be stationary when placed in the venue, but the constantly changing shining light emitted by the double-sided light panels on their surfaces showed dynamic characteristics, reflecting the ultra-fast pace of modern daily life.
In addition, the "Sense of the Future" also includes a "sunlight wall". The wall is composed of about 30,000 individual OLED lighting modules. The entire wall is 16 meters wide and 5 meters high, and can emit simulated sunlight. The light fluctuates slightly, attracting visitors to walk into the exhibition space and personally experience the comfort, warmth and happiness brought by the "sunlight". Researchers in Germany have developed a flexible OLED bracelet that can be adjusted to red or yellow frequencies at night so that staff can see the bracelet data in time. The bracelet can help heal trauma and treat depression when adjusted to a certain frequency. In fact, OLED has more uses in the medical field than this. Many newborns have to be exposed to blue light when they are born because they are diagnosed with jaundice. However, the blue light in LED light can hurt the eyes, so they must be shielded from the eyes. If OLED blue light is used, it can be directly attached to a blanket or quilt and covered on the newborn for phototherapy, which can not only achieve the effect of treating jaundice, but also avoid damage to the eyes. 378284 4 “OLED+” materials
OLED lighting differs from LED lighting in that it can provide thin and flexible light-emitting panels. To demonstrate its flexibility, a Korean research team tried to add a "textile coat" to the lamp. When the textile completely covers the OLED panel, the OLED panel can only be seen through the emitted light when the power is turned on. Flexible OLED lighting panels allow us to achieve a variety of comprehensive applications for 3D fabrics.
Due to the low performance of existing wearable accessories, there are limitations in applicability. The researchers designed an OLED structure that is compatible with fibers, and successfully designed a fiber-based OLED light-emitting structure by dip-coating the three-dimensional structure of the fiber. It can withstand 4.3% tensile strain, while maintaining 90% current efficiency.

"OLED+" Fashion
Due to the flexibility of OLED, OLED entered the fashion circle as early as 2009 and was shaped into a beautiful dress. After nine years, designers once again directed their research to the fashion industry. In order to simplify the structure of OLED elements in clothing, scientists have developed an OLED module that can be integrated on textiles, and used conductive yarns embedded in the fabric to achieve signal transmission.
The textiles made in this way are intended to provide designers with new innovative design ideas, thereby further expanding the field of fashion applications. This achievement will be presented to everyone at the 2018 Electronic System Integration Technology Conference in Dresden, Germany from September 18 to 21, 2018.
The increasingly mature OLED, its every attempt means disruptive innovation. It subverts the characteristics, patterns, and even rules of the original application, creating an opportunity and possibility for sustainable development with a brand new look, thereby creating a lifestyle and concept that can better serve people.
