According to the latest report from LEDinside, a division of the market research firm TrendForce, 4Q17 Micro LED Next Generation Display Industry Market Report- Micro/Mini LED in Automotive Display Market, the total passenger car display in 2017 was about 241 million sets and is predicted to total 624 million sets in 2025, CAGR of 2017-2025 is 13%. The growth driver comes from rising IoV penetration, new energy car and autonomous vehicles. Hence, interior automotive display usage volume significantly rose.

Considering about Micro LED development, there will be the chance for Micro LED to be applied in the fields of low PPI. The main reason is because the production yield rate of Micro LED at this stage is still low, and it is unable to enter the field of high PPI. To sum up, amongst all automotive display applications, Micro LED will have a chance to be applied in cluster with low PPI requirement only having indicating function.

Meanwhile, Micro LED display performance is better than OLED display. Because Micro LED display has higher contrast and brightness than OLED display, product price and performance ratio sufficiently increase. In the future, Micro LED will replace the current display in IT and automotive applications. However, high entry barriers are always in automotive display, at least three years for testing and certification are requested, therefore, the gross margin for automotive panel is high and business secure. Once joining the automotive supply chain, the quantity and price of orders are steady and it is not easy to be replaced.

Automotive panels are used in clusters, CIDs and infotainment displays. Clusters have transitioned from 3.5 to 10 inch spliced panels to an integrated display sized 10.3 to 12.5 inches. The size of CIDs have also changed from 6-9 inch panels showing basic controls initially to 10.1-17 inches showing the information of the entire vehicle. Similarly, infotainments have transitioned from 7-9 inch panels for embedded displays to larger panels sized 10.3-11.4 inch for non-embedded displays. In addition to the increase in size, some basic requirements on automotive panels also include wide viewing angle and high brightness, as well as innovation shapes such as curved and irregularly shaped panels.

Currently, LCD is still the mainstream display of automotive market. However, owing to the shortcomings of LCD, such as curved and flexibility design, OLED may have the chance to replace LCD. But, OLED needs to be improved reliability. If Micro LED can solve this problem, it may take over the market. The full digital cluster is a cluster with networking and intelligence. It is high-functioning and the contents are abundant. The connection is easier, more complete and more user-friendly to satisfy driver’s demand. The display sizes 3.5 to 12.5 inch. It transitioned from 3.5 to 10 inch spliced panels to the mainstream integrated display sized 10.3 to 12.5 inches with PPI (pixel per inch) of 111-199, and brightness of 800-1000 cd/m2, in order to assure display quality in a highly brightness environment during sunny days.
