Looking to expand its expertise outside imaging products, Fujifilm researchers have developed what’s called an electroacoustic film — which is basically a fancy way of saying an ultra-flat speaker that’s flexible enough to roll up and stash in your jacket pocket.
The film is made from a precise mixture of polymers and ceramics, and is actually able to reproduce the entire spectrum of sounds that are audible to humans, from 20Hz to 20kHz. Now the technology obviously makes for eye-catching tradeshow demos, but Fujifilm sees it being used alongside flexible OLED displays so that the roll-up computers of tomorrow sound as great as they look. But we’d just be happy with a kick-arse home stereo that doesn’t break your back when it’s time to move. [DigInfoTV]

Wow! I didn’t really believe what I was seeing at first, But this is pretty incredible. Fast forward 5 years or so, and we’ll all have credit card size phones, that can bend and be screwed up (don’t know why, just because we can I guess) that produce super ultra HD video and sound from the surface. The future is going to be fun! I bet Apple will call theirs the ‘iFlexy’.
