Portable, flexible, external display and lighting screen

In this project, we aim to develop a concept for an improved ōElectronic Paper Technologyö to provide a laptop accessory, specifically a portable, flexible, external electronic Display Screen that can be connected to the Electronic Maintenance Support System (EMSS) to provide a large clear full view of detailed schematics, drawings and pictures contained in technical publications and used by individual Marine Maintainers to view schematic diagrams, drawings, and pictures at the point of maintenance. The goal is to provide two to three Collapsible Electronic Paper Display prototypes for bench top and field environment evaluations over the required range of parameters in meeting Marine Corps needs as a useful product. To reach this goal, we propose to fabricate flexible and foldable electronically pure semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) thin-film transistors (TFTs) driving active matrix organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays in an 11"ū 17" size which can have the same level of integration as any commercial off the shelf (COTS) computer display screen to minimalize software drivers, and hardware connections limited to power and commonly used Personal Computer and/or Audio Video interface standards (DVI-D, DVI-I, HDMI, Display Port, S-video, USB, etc)
