OLEDs are used to create the digital displays by being integrated into the fabric mesh.
  • OLED light-emitting electrochemical cell
  • PMOLED passive-matrix
  • AMOLED active-matrix
  • An OLED display works without a backlight because it emits visible light. Thus, it can display deep black levels and can be thinner and lighter than a typical liquid crystal display (LCD). In low ambient light conditions (such as a darkness), an OLED screen can achieve a higher contrast ratio than an LCD, regardless of whether the LCD uses cold cathode fluorescent lamps or an LED backlight.

Spatially relative terms may be intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is turned over, elements described as “below” or “beneath” other elements or features would then be oriented “above” the other elements or features. Thus, the example term “below” can encompass both an orientation of above and below. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein interpreted accordingly.
