Corning announces 3D Shaped Gorilla Glass for mobiles and wearable devices

Every year at CES, we are used to seeing a new version
of the Corning Gorilla Glass for protecting our
smartphone displays, but this year Corning are
introducing new. Corning has announced that the new
generation of 3D Shaped Gorilla glass is ready for mass
production in 2014.
Among the current smartphones, most smartphones use
a layer of curved glass for protection and Corning aims
to target this market with thier 3D Shaped glass. They
are working with GTOC(G-Tech Optoelectronics Corp) to
set up a integration operating in Taiwan and they hope
to take the Corning gorilla glass from a flat sheet of
glass to 3D shaped glass in Asia.
Corning claims that the new method will be considerably
economical than the already present two-fold molding
process and they hope to achieve precise tolerance and
high thoroughput. The newest generation of Corning
Gorilla Glass will be of uniform thickness and hence it
will help the products be lightweight and thinner.
Corning are hoping to mark their authority over the
emergence of conformable displays for mobile and
wearable applications with their 3D shaped Gorilla
glasses.
