16 Eye-Catching Trends in Display Technology

The global display market is expected to grow to roughly $733 B in 2022, more than double the amount just 8 years ago, according to Grand View Research.

To help cover the space, the Society for Information Display (SID) hosts the annual Display Week symposium and tradeshow. Now in its 57^th year, the event features an early look at advances in solid-state lighting, OLED, microLED, AR/VR/MR, printed displays, auto tech, e-paper, digital signage wearables, and more.

Like most shows, Display Week 2020 was delivered in a virtual setting. This may not have been a bad thing as the show garnished significant representation from the entire display industry, unlike in previous years when a majority of the attendees were from North America due to cost reasons.  

The gallery that follows lists the leading technology and a sampling of products from this year’s symposium.
