A VISION OF THE FUTURE ?


Can you imagine a world where technology becomes truly integrated into our daily lives?  No more switching on your computer or Ipad or bending over your phone whilst walking down the road trying to read emails or mindlessly watching everyone send text messages whilst supposedly having a drink with your mates or business colleagues.

Corning can -  as they have been at the forefront of glass manufacturing for over 160 years. But what has glass got to do with it I hear you say?  Well they manufacture glass substrates for active matrix liquid crystal displays (LCDs), also known as thin-film transistor liquid crystal displays (TFT-LCDs) which they already supply to countless consumer goods manufacturers around the world. Their premium-quality substrates are used in LCD televisions, notebook computers, flat-panel desktop monitors, and portable electronic and communications devices.

But forget all that and imagine you could integrate this technology into everyday objects like your kitchen work surface, bathroom mirror or fridge. Their vision of the future is truly inspirational and doesn’t seem that far away. 



So how possible is it ?  Well Corning explains.
