South Korea, January 9: Ever imagined a television to roll up and turn into a yoga mat? Yes its like a dream come true as LG is set to launch its 65 inch display which would ultimately turn into a yoga mat by switching a button.

 

With the press of a button, LG Display's 65-inch screen slowly lowers into a box, rolling up around a solid core like wrapping paper. The tech company introduced the latest rolling screen technology at the International CES 2018 in Las Vegas. Earlier it was the 18 inch display that was capable of getting in the back pocket and now it’s the bigger display which would roll up.

The front portion of the OLED display is a flat screen and when rolled out, it's rigid and flat. The back is covered in small vertical slats which allow it to curve for storage. The screen can also be rolled partially down to create different aspect ratios. A few inches of the display can be left up to show information like the weather or headlines.

 

LG Display works as a a research arm of LG Electronics, Corp that focuses on developing innovative display technologies, which it then sells directly to display manufacturers that want to use them in their own products. Flexible screens have been popping up at the technology show for the past few years. Although curved televisions haven't taken off, the technology could be put to better use in something like this one.

LG Display also brought out an 88-inch 8K television with an OLED display. The incredibly high-resolution 8K displays aren't mainstream here yet, and there's a dearth of 8k content to even show on them, but LG Displays is getting ready for the future.
