(PhysOrg.com) -- Wallen Mphepö of National Chiao Tung University in Hsinchu, Taiwan, appears to believe the future of computer displays lies in micro-electromechanical systems (MEMs), rather than the pixel technology now dominating computer, phone and other device screens. Current technology requires three sub-pixels for every pixel or dot displayed, a system that Mphepö believes uses too much energy and is hard on the eyes.
