Silicon Valley based company Qualcomm has developed a display for use in portable music players that is completely visible in full sunlight. In fact, the color display actually performs better in the direct sun, because it uses reflected rays to amplify colors. Termed the “Mirasol” screen, this technology is hailed as the first reflective Interferometric Modulation (IMOD ) color display, and might soon be found in a variety of portable applications, including gaming systems. Mirasol quite literally means “Look… Sun!” in Spanish. Interferometric screens, sometimes also referred to as E-Paper, use the passage of light wavelengths through different layers of the screen to produce an image. ( www.pspworld.com )
