Mitsubishi creates world’s largest Diamond Vision OLED

Mitsubishi Electric has installed the Geo-Cosmos, a new six meter OLED globe, at the National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation in Tokyo.

This is the first large scale spherical OLED display in the world and it will be unveiled on June 11. This new globe will replace the previous one and will show visions of the earth and scenes of cloud that were taken from a meteorological satellite.

Geo-Cosmos is a Diamond Vision OLED made of small PMOLED modules. It uses 10,362 panels with a total resolution of more than 10 million pixels. What this means is that each pixel has a resolution of 32×32 although as per Mitsubishi, each pixel has a resolution of 16×16. The news is that Mitsubishi developed these small modules.

This is the second Diamond Vision OLED installation by Mitsubishi, the first one being at Merck’s research center. The one at Merck weighs 480 Kg and it will be interesting to see the weight of the new one.
