ePassport With AMOLED On Display At CeBIT

on 03/08/2010 07:19 PDT

We previously mentioned to you about the AMOLED display touting ePassport from Bundesdrukerei, and it seems that this modern passport was on display at CeBIT. This slim passport was developed with Samsung SDI, and it features a bendable AMOLED display, so you won’t feel much difference compared to your current passport. The AMOLED display can be used to display video, text or pictures on the passport, which should help secure things at airports. Do you think we’ll all be touting similar passports in the next one to three year’s time?
