A rollable display is a flexible display that can be rolled up into a scroll.

Technologies involved in building a rollable display include electronic ink, Gyricon, and OLED.

Electronic paper displays which can be rolled up have been developed by E Ink. At the CES 2006, Philips showed a rollable display prototype whose screen can retain an image for several months without electricity.[1] As of 2007 Philips Polymer Vision expected to launch a 5 inches (130 mm), 320 x 240-pixel resolution rollable display based on E Ink’s electrophoretic technology.

Some flexible organic light-emitting diode displays have been demonstrated.[2] Perhaps the first commercially sold flexible display was an electronic paper wristwatch.

A rollable display is an important part of roll-away computer.
