FULL STORY ======================================================================Transpar ent Micro LED screen displays different content on either side simultaneously Ultra-thin 17.3-inch design blends futuristic aesthetics with real-world functionality Maker AUO hints at aviation, retail, and interior uses for dual display

Transparent screens on devices like smartphones and tablets have long been a staple of sci-fi films and TV shows because they look good, even if they
arent always practical. Now, though, theyre starting to become a reality .

Taiwanese display manufacturer AUO (AU Optronics Corporation), which was formed in 2001 through the merger of Acer Display Technology and Unipac Optoelectronics Corporation, has demonstrated a dual-sided transparent Micro LED display at Touch Taiwan 2025.

This first of its kind display is a thin 17.3-inch screen that offers a transparent experience on both sides, and can present different content depending on the viewing angle. For use on planes and in homes and stores

The screen can show separate images or data on each side, and AUO suggests
one possible use case would be in first-class airline cabins, where
passengers and flight attendants can each see their own interfaces.

AUOs demo included a translation interface, presenting seamless multilingual communication through the display itself. Commercial scenarios such as store windows, museum exhibits, and digital signage are also seen as natural fits for the technology.

The ultra-thin design, combined with transparent Micro LED technology, represents a shift from traditional display use toward something closer to ambient computing.

Unlike single-sided transparent OLEDs, which often struggle with brightness and image clarity in direct light, AUOs Micro LED tech offers higher brightness and color performance - potentially overcoming many of those limitations.

AUO has not revealed when it expects the display to go into production, nor has it given any hint at pricing, although its fair to say the screens wont
be cheap.

A video posted on YouTube shows the screen in use at the 50-second mark. You might also like This transparent microLED display eliminates mass transfer
