In an effort to optimize its organizational structure and accelerate its optical semiconductors business, Ennostar announced on February 21st, 2025, the merger of its subsidiaries—Epistar and Lextar Electronics—under the unified brand of Ennostar Corporation.
TrendForce’s latest report, “2025 Infrared Sensing Application Market and Branding Strategies,” reveals that LiDAR is gaining traction in automotive markets—including passenger vehicles and robo-taxis—as well as in industrial applications such as robotics, factory automation, and logistics. Propelled by advancements in Level 3 and higher autonomous driving systems and logistics solutions, the global LiDAR market is forecast to grow from US$1.181 billion in 2024 to $5.352 billion in 2029, achieving a robust CAGR of 35%.
TrendForce reports that the revenue from Micro LED chips is projected to reach approximately US$38.8 million in 2024, with large displays remaining the primary source of contribution. Looking ahead, breakthroughs in technical bottlenecks are on the horizon, while applications in automotive displays and the increasing maturity of full-color AR glasses solutions are expected to propel Micro LED chip revenue to $489.5 million by 2028.
TrendForce has outlined 10 key trends shaping the technology landscape in 2025. Highlights include:
Meta has just unveiled its first-ever full-color AR glasses, Orion, at Meta Connect 2024. These innovative glasses utilize LEDoS (silicon-based Micro LED) technology and are impressively lightweight at just 98 grams. TrendForce’s recent analysis indicates that 2024 is set to be a crucial year for leading brands venturing into the near-eye display market within the metaverse. Nevertheless, Meta’s AR glasses are still struggling to achieve an optimal balance between FOV and resolution, as well as developing a more robust application ecosystem. It’s predicted that these devices may not be commercially available until after 2027.
