What is it?
Micro-LED (μLED) displays are advanced flat-panel display technology that uses microscopic light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as individual pixel elements. These LEDs, typically less than 100 micrometers in size, offer several advantages over traditional display technologies like LCD and OLED.
Why is it important?
Micro-LED displays can achieve much higher brightness levels and contrast ratios compared to LCD and OLED displays, resulting in more vivid and lifelike images. Micro-LEDs can produce a wider range of colors, enabling more accurate and vibrant color reproduction. They are highly efficient, requiring less power than traditional display technologies, which is particularly beneficial for battery-powered devices. Micro-LEDs have a longer lifespan and are more resistant to image retention and burn-in compared to OLED displays.
What industries will it impact?
Consumer electronics, Automotive, Virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR), Digital signage and large-scale displays, Medical devices, Aerospace and defense.
