Corning Incorporated (NYSE: GLW) today announced its plans for
the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas next
week. The Corning booth, #12642 Central Hall, will showcase the
critical role of highly engineered specialty glass in addressing
emerging trends highlighted at CES 2012, including: increased
functionality from smaller form factors; touch technology;
connected devices in new application spaces; and sleek, durable
large-format design aesthetics.

A key feature of Corning’s CES exposure will be the introduction
of Corning® Gorilla® Glass 2, the next generation of the popular,
damage-resistant cover glass for consumer electronic devices.
“Corning Gorilla Glass has been a tremendous success for
Corning, enjoying excellent market acceptance across mobile device
industries. Handset and tablet device manufacturers are clearly
driving toward higher functionality from thinner designs. Corning’s
latest innovation in Gorilla Glass technology is very well
positioned to meet these challenges and enable broader touch
technology penetration,” said James R. Steiner, senior vice
president and general manager, Corning Specialty Materials. Product
details will be included in an announcement planned for Monday,
Jan. 9.
CES attendees can engage with Corning experts and technologies
featuring the latest applications and benefits of Corning Gorilla
Glass innovations. “As we did last year, we’ll provide consumers
and customers visiting the Corning booth the opportunity to test
first-hand the outstanding damage resistance and flexibility of
this industry-leading, ultra-thin, and tough specialty glass,”
Steiner added.
Corning Gorilla Glass, the technology that made Corning one of
the most talked-about companies at CES 2011, is currently featured
on more than 30 major brands and designed into more than 575
product models, spanning more than 500 million units worldwide.
The Corning booth will also explore the benefits of Corning
Gorilla Glass in larger format, touch displays for education,
entertainment, auto, and home appliance applications featuring new
design possibilities. These include:
- An 82-inch advanced multi-touch LCD
display prototype featuring Corning Gorilla Glass as a durable,
touch-sensitive, and elegant cover glass.
- Touch-enabled automobile interior and
home appliance center simulators demonstrating the enhanced user
interface experience that thin, durable glass can enable in new
design applications.
- A centerpiece, Gorilla Glass-covered
video wall, flanked by Gorilla Glass fabricated sound speakers,
projecting the latest in Corning specialty glass technology
news.
Additionally, Dr. Peter Bocko, Corning’s chief technology
officer for Corning Glass Technologies and one of the foremost
glass experts in the display industry, will be a panelist in the
“Beyond the Flat Screen” session on Thursday, Jan. 12, 1:30 p.m.
PST. He will discuss the latest advances in screen resolution,
viewing angle, sunlight performance, and power consumption in an
effort to isolate new products and opportunities.
