You know how sometimes your friend invites you over to watch the game, and you really want to go because a bunch of your old friends are gonna be there and there’s free food, but at the same time you don’t want to go because they still have a 1950s era 27 inch screen with the picture quality of Paris Hilton’s sex tape? Well, technology may have found a way for those days to be a thing of the past. According to the DailyMail, companies such as Sony, Sharp, Samsung and LG are experimenting with a new technology called “quantum dot” that can make TV screens ultra thin, and capable of being rolled up like paper!

Via The Daily Mail:

The quantum dot technology is light emitting particles which are 100,000 times smaller than the width of a human strand of hair will be printed onto flexible plastic that can be rolled up or even printed onto large sheets of paper to create giant screens.

Although the first QD screens (that may be available as early as next year) will likely be small handheld devices, the chief executive at Nanoco claims that they are also looking into much larger ideas: “Something else we are looking at is reels of wallpaper or curtains made out of a material that has quantum dots printed on it. You can imagine displaying scenes of the sun rising over a beach as you wake up in the morning.”

Looks like those dreams of living in The Jetsons may finally be here!
