CORNING, N.Y., September 19,
2017 - Corning Incorporated (NYSE: GLW)
today announced it will exhibit technologies from its advanced
glass portfolio at Touch Taiwan, Sept. 20-22, 2017, at the Taipei
World Trade Center Nangang Exhibition Hall in Taiwan.
At booth N1203, Corning will highlight two
revolutionary innovations enabled by Corning® Gorilla® Glass:
exceptional cover glass for consumer electronics, and
transformative interiors for autos.
- As the world's leading cover material,
Corning®
Gorilla® Glass is
celebrating 10 years of toughness in consumer electronics, as the
damage-resistant cover glass of choice for device manufacturers
around the globe. Gorilla Glass has been designed into more than 5
billion devices worldwide, including more than 2,100 product models
across 40 major brands.
- Corning®
Gorilla® Glass for
Automotive Interiors can be cold formed into beautiful and complex
shapes for seamlessly integrated automotive displays. This
attribute, coupled with its superior damage resistance, can enable
design flexibility for today's trend toward connected cars. Corning
will showcase this innovation in a standalone dashboard prototype
in its booth at Touch Taiwan.
"We are excited to showcase our advanced glass
portfolio enabled by our core technologies and manufacturing and
engineering platforms" said Daniel Tseng, president of Corning
Display Technologies Taiwan. "We hope to further inspire and engage
our customers and consumers, who benefit from our innovative
technologies in their everyday lives."
Other Corning technologies highlighted in the
booth include:
-
Corning Iris(TM) Glass: A glass light-guide
plate pushing the standard for slender LCD sets, enabling TVs and
monitors thinner than your average smartphone.
-
Corning Lotus(TM) NXT Glass: Display glass
used as substrates, encapsulants, and carriers to enhance the
design and manufacture of high-performance LTPS-OLED and LTPS-LCD
displays by delivering high resolution and brightness, energy
efficiency, and innovative design.
-
Corning® EAGLE
XG® Slim Glass:
These substrates enable panel manufacturers to drive innovation for
thinner, lighter, and more environmentally conscious display
panels. Eagle XG delivers dimensional stability and exceptionally
clean, smooth and flat surfaces with no added heavy
metals.
-
Corning Precision Glass Solutions:
High-precision wafers and panel format glass-based solutions,
enabling higher speeds, lower form factors and enhanced optical
performance in various applications, including consumer electronics
and the Internet of Things.
-
Corning®
Fibrance®
Light-Diffusing Fiber: This innovative optical fiber delivers laser
light in low-ambient lighting conditions. It is adaptable for
a range of market applications, including consumer electronics,
automotive, architecture, apparel, and medical. This fiber is
particularly useful in tight or small spaces, is nearly invisible
when turned off, and enables users to bend, curve and wrap around -
or weave into - almost anything, while maintaining bright,
continuous, uniform dielectric light.
During Touch Taiwan, Han (Jung-Han) Yim, Strategic
Division Programs director, Corning Display Technologies, will
deliver a keynote presentation titled "How Glass is Shaping the
Future of the Display Industry" at 3:40 p.m., Sept. 20, in Room 401
of the Taipei World Trade Center Nangang Exhibition Hall.
