In this paper, a novel color image display with concurrent data storage is presented. We use a Nano-Media concept that consists of a nano-fabric based on sub-wavelength pixelated structures and an intensity control layer (ICL) deposited on top of a fabric. The ICL is used to tune the brightness of individual RGB sub-pixels and to obtain the desired pattern, data or image. Using this technology, any information can be stored and displayed as optical machine and/or human readable. The experimental work is presented to show the Nano-Media used for the multispectral layers of information storage and display. The fabrication results are discussed together with the practical examples for various applications.
