BOE has just unveiled its new breed of MLED display technology. The new display is a breakthrough in its efforts to improve the transparent display technology. So here are all the details.

For those unaware, transparent screens have been available for the consumer market in the ultra high end segments. It has even had applications in the commercial sectors and has also been useful in supporting other technologies like augmented reality. But despite all of this, they have had some limiting factors apart from their huge price tags. However, it seems that BOE is addressing many of the woes of transparent displays with its new MLED panel technology.

So far, transparent panels function as both a window and a billboard display due to discrepancies in their pixel structure or circuitry. Although, the Chinese display maker has announced the new MLED screens that offer improvements in both of these aspects. BOE has claimed that it has worked out how to space and connect its pixels in a manner that is better for displays to function as a transparent panel.

Thanks to this, the company claims that it has achieved an optimization result in transmittance that now hits up to 65 percent. This figure is on the regions of the MLED programmed to be opaque. BOE has also stated that its new MLED display technology can hit brightness of up to 1,000 nit and a contrast rtio of 1:100,000 under certain circumstances as well. In other words, this could be the new and improved future of the transparent displays.

China’s Beijing Metro line is an important transport hub fro the country and also a fertile ground for displaying innovative new technologies. In August this year, LG Display officially announced that it has provided several 55-inch transparent OLED display panels for subway trains of Beijing and Shenzhen.

China’s Beijing Metro Line 5 has now announced a pilot project that includes several sef-developed smart technological products. One of such products is the “Smart Turnstiles” which began as a pilot project on Christmas day installed in the Dongdan Station of Beijing Metro Line 5.

It is understood that traditional subway turnstiles are large in size, and the use of beam sensors to identify pedestrians not only has low accuracy, but also easily causes problems such as trapping, missing people, and fare evasion. These new gates are equipped with a set of binocular cameras at the top. The cameras deploy binocular vision technology and can accurately identify humans and objects. This helps to protect the safety of people and objects. There is also an effective anti-pinch technology which prevents injuries.

The gate also adds high-precision reverse intrusion, trailing, parallel, and other fraud detection and real-time image recording for evidence to standardize uncivilized rides.

The new generation Smart Turnstiles has a length of 1400mm and is 180mm wide. This is said to be 30% and 10% smaller than traditional turnstiles. This will also help in space management within the station.

Another important part is that the subway staff can easily switch the two-way channel function settings and categories according to the changes in the real-time passenger flow situation, further improve the efficiency of the passage, and ease the pressure during peak passenger flow.

The “binocular side door” also has the function of ordinary gates for ticket checking, which is convenient for wheelchair passengers to enter and exit the station. At the same time, it also supports the station staff to take snapshots where needed.

This is indeed an innovative product. It is one of the many technological products that the Beijing Line 5 is popular for. According to Wikipedia, the Line 5 is the first subway line in Beijing to have platform screen doors in underground stations and automatic platform gates in elevated stations that prevent riders from falling onto the tracks. Line 5 stations also have LCD screens that display the wait times for the next train. Line 5 trains have digital voice announcements (in Mandarin and English) and LCD passenger information display.
