Screenless Display Market Overview :
Screenless Display Market is expected to garner $5.7 billion by 2020, registering a CAGR of 29.9% during the forecast period 2015-2020. Screenless display is an evolving display technology, which enables the user to display and transmit information without the use of screen or projector. Numerous companies are investing to acquire patents for their revolutionary technologies related to screen less displays. Although this technology is at its evolving stage, however, its adoption is expected to increase during the forecast period, owing to technological advancements that would enable the companies to reduce their overall hardware components manufacturing cost.
Low power consumption, wide viewing angles and enhanced privacy associated with this technology are some of the factors driving the growth of the world screenless display market. Screenless displays occupy less space, unlike screen-based displays, which is the key factor that end users would be propelled to adoption this technology in future. In 2014, the screenless display market witnessed a substantial growth, which led major market players to launch various products including bionic contact lenses, virtual reality headsets and holograms. Technological advancements in consumer electronics have enabled market players to introduce smartphone-compatible with virtual reality devices based on consumers’ preferences. Google Glass, a revolutionary product introduced by Google, is in huge demand in the U.S. market. However, factors, such as high product cost, low availability of products and unawareness among end users have restricted its adoption in other major developing market.
The key players profiled in the report includes Google, Inc., Avegant Corporation, Displair, Microsoft Corporation, Synaptic Incorporated, Esterline Technologies Corp., BAE Systems, EON Reality, Inc., MicroVision, Inc. and RealView Imaging Ltd.
Top Factors Impacting World Screenless Display Market

Technological advancements: Increasing technological advancements paired with widened application of screenless displays among consumers would foster the growth of this technology among end user industries. Companies are introducing advanced display solutions, to attract large customer base. For instance, Avegant intends to introduce a headset, glyph with retinal display technology by 2016. Microsoft after the success of Google glass, intends to launch Hololens, range of screenless display glass by 2016. Companies are also launching smartphones equipped with virtual reality devices.
Low power & space requirement: Screenless display require no or limited power for its operation. Hence, it gives a profitable option to consumers to minimize the electricity usage. Also, the technology has an edge over the traditional displays solutions, which require physical spaces for operating. The size of the hardware associated with screenless displays are relatively small, in turn acts as portable option for the consumer on the move. Technological giants such as Samsung and Sony have already started adopting screenless displays in TV’s, and would be commercially available few years from now.
High Cost: Screenless display is priced high compared to other displays technology. The cost of this technology is high, which restricts the overall revenue generation for the technology. However, with technological advancement the price of this display solution would decrease and with many regional companies entering into the market with varied screenless display products.
