Hybrid Displays - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18671793 titled 'Hybrid Displays
The abstract describes a hybrid display with different display portions having different resolutions. The high resolution portion is in the main viewing area, while the low resolution portion is in a peripheral viewing area. The high resolution portion has a silicon backplane, while the low resolution portion may have a thin-film transistor backplane. Both portions may share a common organic light-emitting diode layer for uniform light emission.
- High resolution display portion positioned in main viewing area

Original Abstract Submitted
A hybrid display may include different display portions with different resolutions. The high resolution display portion may be positioned in a main viewing area for the viewer whereas the low resolution display portion may be positioned in a peripheral viewing area. The high resolution display portion may have a silicon backplane. The low resolution display portion may have a different type of backplane such as a thin-film transistor backplane. The different display portions may optionally share a common organic light-emitting diode layer such that light is emitted from the same plane across both display portions. The high resolution display portion may emit light through a transparent window in the low resolution display portion. A high resolution display may also be formed by separately forming a frontplane and a backplane. Conductive attachment structures such as indium bumps may be used to mechanically and electrically connect the backplane to the frontplane.
