Facebook, Plessey, Apple and Micro LED Industry

March 31, 2020, by Jennifer Colegrove, Ph.D. Touch Display Research Inc.

Yesterday, Plessey just announced it signed a commercial agreement with Facebook to help Facebook prototype and develop new technologies for potential use in the AR/VR space. Plessey’s micro LED technology is one of the 18 methods to manufacture micro LEDs.

In the newly published “Micro and Mini LED Technologies, Supply Chain and Market Forecast 2020-2030 Report, Third Edition,” Touch Display Research Inc., a market research and consulting firm, analyzed all the methods to fabricate micro and mini LED displays along with their supply chains.

Since Apple acquired LuxVue Technology and all its patents, more and more companies and research institutes have begun research into micro LED displays. More than 250 companies and research institutes working on micro LED and mini LED display are profiled in the database of this report.

 Once in a decade, there is a dark cloud which disrupts the economy, but which also creates an opportunity for certain industries. For example, in the 2008/2009 global economic downturn, many industries were down, but not the touch screen industry, which grew handsomely. Currently, the novel coronavirus COVID-19 is slowing down many industries, but micro and mini LED will be a bright spot. Your company’s strategic planning in the next six months could decide your success or lack of it for the next several years. This Micro and Mini LED 2020 report can be a helping hand right now.

In the recently published “Micro LED Display Patent Analysis and Strategies 2020 Report,” Touch Display Research Inc., a market research and consulting firm, searched and analyzed over 1000 granted patents and published patent applications about micro LED displays. Additionally, we directly conducted surveys with many micro LED display companies to confirm or clarify the patent research results.

Thanks for reading, I pray to God to help our doctors and scientists to find the cure and control the virus.
