Microdisplays Market Statistics

Market Overview

Microdisplay is a compact electronic display panel. This display is less than two inches in diagonal size and can be viewed through an optical system. Microdisplays have applications in many devices such as near-eye applications, data projectors and dead mounted displays (HMDs) rear-projection TVs, etc. In addition, Microdisplay gives super extended graphics array (SEGA) resolution for better brightness.

Report Highlights of the Microdisplays Market

  • By product, the near-to-eye segment led the global market in 2023. The dominance of the segment can be attributed to the growing adoption of near-to-eye displays by many consumers.
  • By product, the projection segment is anticipated to grow at the fastest rate in the market over the forecast period. The growth of the segment can be linked to the rising advanced integration of technologies like liquid crystal on silicon (LCOS).
  • By technology, the liquid crystal display (LCD) segment dominated the market in 2023. The dominance of the segment is due to the increasing use of head-up displays (HUDs) and the low costs of LCDs.
  • By technology, the liquid crystal on silicon (LCoS) segment is estimated to grow at a significant rate in the market over the projected period. The growth of the segment is driven by the escalating integration of LCoS microdisplays in multiple products.
  • By application, in 2023, the consumer electronics segment held the largest share of the market. The dominance of the segment is because of the increasing preference for convenient and portable devices by consumers.
  • By application, the automotive application segment is projected to grow at the fastest rate in the market over the forecast period. The growth of the segment is credited to growing advancements in microdisplays along with the integration of innovative features by market players.

Rising need for AR and VR technology

The demand for the microdisplays market is being fuelled by the increasing acceptance of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) applications across many industries, such as education, healthcare, enterprise, and gaming. Hence, microdisplays that offer high-resolution options and are portable are important parts of AR and VR technologies. Also, major market players are investing heavily in research and development to create feature-rich microdisplays.

  • In February 2022, eMagin Corporation announced the first public demonstration of its flagship Direct Patterning Display (dPdTM) technology on a widescreen ultra-extended graphics array (WUXGA) (1920x1200 pixels) OLED microdisplay, the world's brightest full-color OLED microdisplay.

Increasing adoption of automotive applications

Microdisplays can be combined with AR dashboards and other automotive end-uses to enhance driver safety and driving experience. The automotive industry's increasing focus on advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) is boosting the need for microdisplays in the automobile sector. However, microdisplays allow drivers to see essential data, such as navigation directions, without witnessing any distractions.

Implementation of microdisplays in military and defense

The microdisplays market has a wide range of applications in the military and defense sector such as thermal imaging equipment and flight simulation systems. Microdisplays are gaining more popularity because this application necessitates durable, lightweight, and high-performance displays. Furthermore, this display functions in an extreme range of temperatures and conditions, enabling their high adoption in the defense sector.
