New Award for Plastic Logic and ISORG's Sensor Which Promises to Transform the way we Interact With Consumer Devices

New Award for Plastic Logic and ISORG'sNew Award for Plastic Logic and ISORG's Sensor Which Promises to Transform the way we Interact With Consumer Devices PR Newswire CAMBRIDGE, England and GRENOBLE, France, April 1, 2014 Plastic Logic and ISORG were jointly awarded the IDTechEx Product development award at the Printed Electronics Show in Berlin. This award was for their jointly developed revolutionary flexible image sensor which also won the Flexi Award at Flextech, Phoenix, USA in February. Plastic Logic, the leader in the development and industrialisation of flexible organic electronics, and ISORG, the pioneer in organic photodetectors and large area image sensors in printed electronics, won the award for their revolutionary large area flexible image sensor. The flexible sensor demonstration, which is only a fraction of a millimeter thick (~150 microns) and weighs only 2.7 grams, gave a glimpse of the huge range of possible applications for the large area sensor technology. The overall market for printed and flexible sensors is forecast to be worth over $7Bn by 2020 (IDTechEx 2014). The collaboration is based on the deposition of organic printed photodetectors (OPD), pioneered by ISORG, onto a plastic organic thin-film transistor (OTFT) backplane, developed by Plastic Logic, to create a flexible sensor array.
