Japan's Lumiotec plans to start shipping OLED Lighting panels next month. These will be sample kits that include one 145mm x 145mm OLED panel, a controller and an AC adapter. The kits will cost ¥80,000 each (about $880). Lumiotec plans to increase production capacity in July and reach about 40,000 panels annually.
