INT Beats eMagin to the Market w/Patterned Pixel Structure for OLED Micro Displays
April 05, 2020
Taiwan-based Innovative and Transformation (INT) develops glass-based display devices with ultra-high pixel density for AR/VR and other applications. The company has recently rolled out what it describes as the world's first 0.7-inch AMOLED display with a pixel density of up to 2300ppi. Company chairman David Chu said in a recent interview with DigiTimes that displays with higher ppi will be able to tackle the dizziness caused by VAC (vergence-accommodation conflict) on AR/VR devices, a major breakthrough crucial for further development of the AR/VR industry. INT claims the world's first RGB side by side AMOLED display device with a resolution of up to 2300ppi dedicated to applications for AR glasses. Compared to silicon substrate-based white-light OLED panels, the RGB OLED technology comes with a wider color gamut, higher brightness, lower power consumption, as well as better OLED lifespan development - advantages that meet underlying demand for AR glasses. The dynamic picture shown by the 0.7-inch display device indeed highlights the in-house developed uNEED (ultra-high pixel density in near eyes display) technology, paving the way for the adoption of this technology for volume production of related display products. There is no color filter in our uNEED architecture, with RGB emitting light directly for achieving better color saturation, contrast, image quality, and brightness than those delivered by the silicon-based OLED micro displays. Instead of using an integrated architecture built on silicon-based OLED microdisplay backplane with ICs, the uNEED technology adopts an architecture combining glass backplane with silicon-based IC that can significantly improve yield rates for manufacturing.
The INT AMOLED micro displays built with uNEED technology can maintain an aperture ratio of 70% at a pixel density of 3000ppi compared to an aperture ratio of below 20% for current smartphone-use AMOLED displays at 500ppi. uNEED's RGB side by side architecture delivers higher contrast ratio (100,000:1 versus 10,000:1), higher brightness (3000 nits or higher versus 2000 nits) and can reduce power consumption of over 30% at the same brightness rating, specs for AR applications.
INT's RGB side by side AMOLED technology will be upgraded to pixel densities required to address the dizziness caused VAC (vergence-accommodation conflict) on AR/VR devices, and therefore displays with higher PPIs.
INT is in talks with a well-known eye clinic to develop a visual aid device for the visually impaired. We hope to use displays with ultra-high pixel density to help and enable patients with amblyopia disease caused by macular degeneration to see the light again. They are discussing educational product brands for possible cooperation, and hope to develop a series of multi-functional smartwatches that can pair with AR teaching aids to optimize the effectiveness of remote teaching. INT is also working with international vendors to develop next-generation helmets with microdisplay panels. INT plans to deliver during this year the EVK (evaluation kit) and engineering samples of our 0.7-inch 2300ppi displays to downstream clients for verification.
