Sony has unveiled what it claims is the world’s first organic light-emitting-diode television, the XEL-1. The OLED television is based on electroluminescent organic materials, with a structure that enables ‘unprecedented’ levels of thinness and lightweight design. The technology has been more than ten years in development. Sony claims the product has ‘limited environmental impact’ and is planning to expand the OLED market over the coming years. Launching at the beginning of December in Japan, the XEL-1 will be positioned alongside Sony’s Bravia range.
