The World’s First Large-Scale Spherical OLED Screen

Its like watching earth right in front of you. The National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation (Miraikan) in Tokyo displayed Mitsubishi Electric’s “Geo-Cosmos”, the world’s first large-scale spherical OLED. The globe was installed to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the museum. It was created from Miraikan’s Chief Executive Director Mamoru Mohri’s desire of “wanting to share with people the sight of our beautiful Earth as seen from space.”

The gigantic globe features 10,362 OLED panels which cover an aluminum sphere hanging 18 meters from the floor. The 6 meter orb is an upgrade to a previous model which featured regular LED panels. This spanking new OLED version features a resolution about 10 times greater than LED, more than 10 million pixels! It’s amazing, don’t forget to check out the video below.
