With the attention of Metaverse (Metaverse) as the next generation of Internet, the screen display industry dedicated to AR/VR devices has also ushered in a new round of growth.

According to the industry's news on the 12th, Meta, led by Oculus, and global technology giants such as Apple and Microsoft (MS) have laid out VR devices in succession. As of last year, Oculus's Quest 2 accounted for 75% of the VR hardware market share. Microsoft and Sony also released HoloLens 2 and PS VR2 respectively. Apple's goal is to launch Apple VR by the end of this year. According to IDC, the market analysis agency, as of last year, the shipment volume of VR/AR equipment was 8.6 million, which will increase by six times to 52.9 million by 2025.

With the growth of VR hardware equipment shipments, the display panel market is also growing rapidly. DSCC, a market research company specializing in displays, predicts that 15.8 million panels will be used for VR head displays this year. Next, the growth rate of VR head display shipments is expected to be 34% per year, and the panel shipments are expected to be 50% per year. It is estimated that by 2027, the annual sales of AR and VR displays will reach US $9.3 billion (about 59.2 billion yuan), 12 times that of US $778 million this year.

Korean display companies such as Samsung Display and LG Display are also developing VR-related OLED technology. The industry predicts that Samsung Electronics will release AR glasses this year. Cui Rongxi, Managing Director of Samsung Display, attended the OLED South Korea conference on the 7th of this month and said: "With the support of 5G, we will meet through VR and AR. In the Metaverse world, we need a screen resolution of more than 1000 ppi (pixel ppi)."

LG Display also launched OLEDoS for AR and VR displays last year. OLEDoS was evaluated as the display product with the highest resolution and brightness among existing VR/AR displays.

In addition, it is reported that Apple VR, which is planned to be released this year, will be equipped with OLED panels, and Samsung display and LG display are currently attracting attention. Because these two companies have been providing OLED panels for Apple's smart phone iPhone, the probability of cooperation is expected to be very high.

A professional in the display industry predicted that "in order to realize virtual reality, just as the human eye can see it directly, a screen with fast response and high resolution is required. Therefore, in the future, OLED displays may be installed on VR and AR devices."
