Three technologies are used in the screen like a Roll motor powertrain, 2-in-1 plate and self-developed warp Track high-strength screen lamination. The 2-in-1 plate beneath the screen acts according to the display when it is rolled out, it also helps that the screen is flat when expanded. The Roll motor powertrain drives the screen while rolling out.
