FOLED, Flexible Organic Light Emitting Diode, another case of life imitating art. A page right out of Tom Cruises movie Minority Report. Where the user manipulates a transparent computer screen by swapping things around with his fingers and clicking on-screen virtual buttons.

Austin Technologies made sheets of flexible electroluminescent materials in the 90's even. (I've got a blinking cycling safety belt for night riding based on it.) After a few years it had developed some dark blotches... The material wasn't transparent though.
The technology probably isn't entirely new, just an improvement to the point where a lot more things can be done with it. Remember, Tesla had flouresent lighting a few decades before it began manufacture in 1939 or so.
