New idea - transparent transitors

The Invisible Computer
The part that is unexpected:
- Researchers have invented a semiconductor with conductivity similar to silicon. It makes cheap transistors that are as heat-resistant as stoneware, which means they can survive in hostile environments like car engines. They're as flexible and durable as plastic garbage bags, an obvious plus for portable electronics. The best part: They could be used in 3-D displays and windshield computers. Why? Because they're utterly clear.
- Fabricating TTFT chips, says Wager, could be 1,000 times cheaper than silicon.
- Imagine a video pillar filled top to bottom with radiant 3-D pixels, or a heads-up windshield display that helps you navigate, blocks the sun, flashes warnings to other drivers, and lights up the road ahead. Imagine eyeglasses with the computing power of a high-end laptop and the resolution of HDTV.

I want something emedded in my windsheild that will track and dim/block oncoming headlights at night. This sounds perfect.
How long do I have to wait until it's ready? :-)
