LG Display had five patents in metaverse during Q2 2024. The patent filed by LG Display Co Ltd in Q2 2024 describes an electronic device with a display panel containing a pixel flexible substrate, driving circuit, organic light-emitting material, and shielding units. It also includes micro photoelectric units with micro-photoelectric elements, including sensor elements, located adjacent to a protection layer. These units emit light towards an object and receive the light reflected, scattered, refracted, or diffracted by the object, or receive a signal generated from the light after interacting with the object.

Application: Electronic device with micro-photoelectric units (Patent ID: US20240194721A1)

The patent filed by LG Display Co Ltd describes an electronic device that includes a display panel with a pixel flexible substrate, driving circuit, organic light-emitting display medium, and shielding units. Additionally, the device features micro photoelectric units with sensor elements and protection layers to emit and receive light towards objects. The micro photoelectric units are designed to detect reflected, scattered, refracted, or diffracted light from objects or signals generated from the light, potentially for applications like photoplethysmography (PPG) to monitor physical quantities related to the blood circulatory system.

The claims of the patent detail various aspects of the electronic device, including the emission of different types of light such as red, infrared (IR), and green light, as well as the use of micro photoelectric units emitting IR, UV, or visible light. The device also incorporates shielding units, pixels connected to the driving circuit, and a protection layer that can be a rigid or flexible substrate or a protective film. Furthermore, the patent mentions applications for the device in virtual reality (VR) or augmented reality (AR) head-mounted displays, with the micro photoelectric units capable of emitting light and sensing changes in pulse and blood oxygen concentration in the body.
