Sony: 3D, Flex OLED, Lightweight Vaio

3D was a big topic at the Sony booth, which included programs with guest speakers such as Real D’s Josh Greer and 3Ality’s Steve Schklair.

Sony previewed prototype 3D-ready TVs, using a variety of content, including previews of Sony Pictures Animation’s Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs, DWA’s Monsters Vs. Aliens and Fox’s Blue Sky Studios’ Ice Age 3;  as well as some live action and video game clips.

Another popular Sony booth attraction was the Flex OLED prototypes. The highlights included the 2.5-inch video display (160×120 pixels, 0.2 mm thickness), a future concept Reader, a bracelet-like Walkman and a Vaio notebook (pictured below).  The prototypes were all based on curved OLED screens made from what Sony calls “flexible bio plastic.”
