Glass and ceramic component maker Corning has just introduced a revolutionary new substrate they are calling “Willow Glass.” This new glass can be produced in sheets as thin as a single sheet of paper. Corning believes it boasts near-limitless potential in wrapping around radical new interactive touchscreen devices, and on a large-scale, in dynamic (possibly undulating?) high-definition digital display units.
