Microdisplay Market

Microdisplay Market Overview:

Global Microdisplay Market is expected to garner $3 billion by 2022, registering a CAGR of 22.6% during the forecast period 2014-2022.

Microdisplay is basically a compact size display with less than a quarter inch diagonal. It has user-configurable technology, high resolution, and high pixel density that is widely used in smart watches, smart bands, and smart glasses to enable quality images and high contrast ratio. Moreover, it provides super extended graphics array (SEGA) resolution for better angle viewing and enhanced brightness. LCD, DLP, and LCoS are widely used microdisplay technologies. Presently, microdisplay finds its wide range of applications in military & defence, for real time monitoring and faster performance.

High resolution and excellent picture quality, low power consumption and compact size has led to a higher adoption of microdisplay in military & defence, consumer electronics, medical applications. Therefore, owing to these benefits the global microdisplay market is expected to grow rapidly in the near future. However, high cost and low picture quality at high temperature may restrain the market growth. Irrespective of the challenges, increasing number of Near-To-Eye (NTE) applications in various consumer electronics such as head mounted display and smart glasses are expected to provide enormous opportunity for the market.
