Flexible display interface is capable of creating new user behaviors based on its characteristics of outstanding surface representation and display transformations such as bending, rolling, and folding. Thus, it is being discussed that the newly emerging flexible display interface can offer a different user experience that the previous flat display couldn't. However, as it is hard to find studies that identify the general attributes of user experience in the area of flexible display research, this study was intended to identify and label experience that users expect in a flexible display interface. For this purpose, this study first investigated literature reviews about user experience in previous digital media interface and flexible display interface and conducted interview research in order to reflect the users' perception, collecting 52 items that represent user experience. In addition, these items were used as measurements to deduct different types of user experience, and 308 interviewees participated in the interview research process. As a result, 10 types of user experience were developed from the results of the survey: functionality, understandability, pleasure, convenience, familiarity, stimulation, adaptability, collectivity, reality, and aesthetic.

The digital multimedia environment, centered on Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) technology, has transformed our imagination into a diverse experience. The flexible display, which was born as a means of human-machine communication required in a highly information-oriented society, It is creating a new market by linking with Internet of things. ecause the interface of a flexible display can provide a physical form as a result of input or output, user-centered interface design is paramount. Therefore, the researchers of this paper have studied the physical deformation and characteristics of flexible display by user manipulation through literature and case studies. Therefore, the authors of this paper studied the physical deformations and characteristics of flexible displays by user manipulation through literature and case studies. This research suggests the following guidelines for a flexible display interface design for the user experience. First, it must be designed to provide the functionality that users need in a variety of display environments. Second, in using the interface, external factors should be removed from the viewing angle of multi-users. Third, all possible user actions should be considered on flexible displays other than touch and contact. Fourth, flexible design of flexible display requires changing interface design for user experience.

We successfully fabricated flexible electronic paper display (EPD) by using toner particles on plastic (PC) substrate. It has high resolution (WVGA : 800 ${\times}$ 480) and 7 inch diagonal viewable image size. The response time was about 0.25 msec at 90 V, a contrast ratio of about 2, a driving voltage of 60 V which we successfully demonstrated to display several images at.

We fabricated flexible electronic paper display(EPD) by using toner particles on plastic (PC) substrate. We observed the relationship between contrast ratio and changes of rib structures. One is a fabrication of ribs on bottom substrate. The display with ribs on bottom substrate had higher contrast ratio about 46% than display with ribs on top substrate. The other is a change of density of rib. The less density of ribs fabricated, the higher the contrast ratio become.

Typically internal mobile LCD display modules are connected to the mobile product baseband PCB with flexible printed circuit board equipped with board-to-board connector. This solution has a drawback of limiting the product concept work to certain solutions that are based on connector size, location, flexible PCB length, bending, etc. in the display module. Also flexible printed circuit board based solutions are not completely optimized from reliability point of view, causing flex circuit board breakings. For the external displays in the PC or Home entertainment market, the cable solution is too expensive and resource demanding. The wireless solution has obvious advantages over reliability, low cost and flexibility. This paper describes a wireless audio-visual interface solution.

Display is an essence in human-machine communication interface. As mobile environment such as internet of things (IOT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) progress, importance of display increases. Here we review research trend in flexible organic light emitting displays (OLEDs). This review article covers all the components consisting of flexible OELDs and shows direction of the recent research. This paper would be helpful for readers and researchers working in this field and provide perspective for future displays.

Organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) with printable semiconductors are promising candidate devices for flexible active-matrix (AM) display applications. Yet, stable operation of actual display panels driven by OTFTs has seldom been reported up to date. Here, we demonstrate a flexible reflective type polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) display, in which inkjet-printed OTFT arrays are used as driving elements with excellent areal uniformity in terms of device performance. As the active semiconductor, a novel, ambient processable conjugated copolymer was synthesized. The stability of the devices with respect to electrical bias stress was improved by applying a channel-passivation layer, which suppresses the environmental effects and hence reduces the density of trap states at the channel/dielectric interface. The combination of high performance and high stability OTFT devices enabled the successful realization of stable operating flexible color-displays by inkjet-printing.

This paper aims to elicit user-defined hand gestures for the small cylindrical displays with flexible displays which has not emerged as a product yet. For this, we first defined the size and functions of a small cylindrical display, and elicited the tasks for operating its functions. Henceforward we implemented the experiment environment which is similar to real cylindrical display usage environment by developing both of a virtual cylindrical display interface and a physical object for operating the virtual cylindrical display. And we showed the results of each task in the virtual cylindrical display to the participants so they could define the hand gestures which are suitable for each task in their opinion. We selected the representative gestures for each task by choosing the gestures of the largest group in each task, and we also calculated agreement scores for each task. Finally we observed mental model of the participants which was applied for eliciting the gestures, based on analyzing the gestures and interview results from the participants.

Tactile sensation is one of the most important sensory functions for human perception of objects. Recently, there have been many technical challenges in the field of tactile display as well as tactile sensing. In this paper, we propose an innovative tactile display device based on soft actuator technology with ElectroActive Polymer(EAP). This device offers advantageous features over existing devices with respect to intrinsic flexibility, softness, ease of fabrication and miniaturization, high power density, and cost effectiveness. In particular, it can be adapted to various geometric configurations because it possesses structural flexibility, so it can be worn on any part of the human body such as finger, palm, and arm etc. It can be extensively applied as a wearable tactile display, a Braille device for the visually disabled, and a human interface in the future. A new design of the flexible actuator is proposed and its basic operational principles are discussed. In addition, a wearable tactile display device with $4{\times}5$ actuator array(20 actuator cells) is developed and its effectiveness is confirmed.
