Researchers at CEA Leti integrate organic photodetectors within microLED displays

Researchers from France's CEA Leti have reported on the successful integration of organic photodetectors within microLED displays, to create a multifunctional display, that can combine imaging with gesture recognition, and even biometric scanning.

As microLEDs are extremely bright, it is possible to create displays with very high aperture ratio (compared to other displays such as LCDs and OLEDs) which frees up space on the display panel.
