Researchers have developed a flexible, magnet-based screen inspired by squid, capable of storing and displaying encrypted images.

The device displays specific information with the correct magnetic keys, using no code or electronics, making it secure from hacking.Researchers have developed a flexible screen inspired by squid that can store and display encrypted images using magnetic fields instead of traditional electronics.

A team at the University of Michigan claims its screen is versatile for applications where light and power sources are impractical, such as in clothing, stickers, ID badges, barcodes, and e-book readers. The beads alternate between orange and white hemispheres, functioning similarly to pixels. The beads’ orange halves are filled with tiny magnetic particles that, when subjected to a magnetic field, cause the beads to rotate up or down, creating the color contrast required to display a picture.

By placing the screen near magnets of varying strengths, the magnetic properties of pixels can be rewritten, allowing different images to be programmed.composed of iron oxide magnetic particles. However, the polarization of pixels containing neodymium particles is more difficult to modify; a powerful magnetic pulse is needed.
