According to reports, China Touch Screen Network News, as one of the main application markets for small and medium-sized panels, the competition of panel manufacturers in the automotive display market has never been interrupted. Especially with the development of 5G, driverless and new energy vehicles, the update and iteration of display panel technology has accelerated.
Therefore, in the future, vehicle-mounted displays will become more and more extensive, and vehicle-mounted screens are specialized in the production. From the perspective of market application and research and development, A-si, TFT-LCD, LTPS, AMOLED, and Mini/Micro LED are the current automotive applications. Display panel main technology. Among them, the market trend of A-si and TFT-LCD is weakening, LTPS is in full swing, AMOLED is on the rise, and Mini/Micro LED is a forward-looking technology reserve, and it will appear at various exhibitions at high frequency. The automotive display competition of display screens According to IHS Markit data, the shipment of automotive display panels in 2018 reached 161.5 million pieces, a year-on-year increase of 9.4%. IHS pointed out that the global automotive display panel market has entered a period of slow growth but intense competition. However, compared with the weak demand for smartphones, which is difficult to reverse, the compound annual growth rate of automotive displays will reach 7% from 2017 to 2025. Display panel demand for automotive displays and public displays, smart watches, and OLED TVs is expected to grow faster than other applications. Whether it is to expand the profit growth point or to smooth out the unsatisfactory on the smartphone panel, panel manufacturers have increased the number of automotive displays in recent years. JDI and LGD are the leaders of LTPS automotive panels. With the help of the two companies, LTPS has gradually occupied a certain market share of automotive display panels after A-si. The advantages of LTPS are that it is ultra-thin, light weight, low power consumption, colorful and clearer, and OLED panels are also derived from LTPS. According to the high-tech new display, JDI has already deployed LTPS in 2015, and has made a plan for mass production of LTPS for automotive displays. With its technological advantages and mass production level, JDI's automotive display panel business revenue exceeded 100 billion yen for the first time in 2017. Holger Gerkens, executive director of JDI's automotive panel, revealed that by 2020, JDI's automotive panel revenue plans to expand to 160 billion yen. As for mainland panel manufacturers, CSOT, a subsidiary of TCL Group, has expanded the production of the sixth-generation LTPS display panel technology, and its product positioning includes automotive display applications. On the basis of its LTPS advantages, LGD has decided to focus on the automotive OLED market this year, and has realized the application of new Mercedes-Benz models. OLED panels have higher response speed, lower energy consumption, and have the characteristics of flexible display, unbreakable, and no dead ends. In the industry's view, their performance helps to improve driving safety and is very suitable for the automotive display market. UBI Research predicts that OLED will account for 10% of the automotive display market by 2020. Mainland manufacturers BOE and Visionox have both expanded their AMOLED production, and their AMOLED panels have been applied in automotive displays, breaking the gap in technology and applications in the domestic market. According to related reports, BOE’s AMOLED panels are also equipped with Mini LED, In-Cell and other technologies. Visionox AMOLED is still in its infancy, but there is already a certain scale of AMOLED production lines, and in April this year, the transparent A-pillars for boosters were mass-produced, which solved the problem of blind spots in driving. Sharp, which was acquired by Foxconn, is also working on organic EL (OLED) panels, and is expected to launch organic EL vehicle panels in the market in 2021. According to foreign media reports, Sharp will set up a new factory in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and plans to produce in-vehicle displays for the U.S. market in Vietnam. It is reported that the new factory was originally scheduled to be located in China, but was changed to be produced in Vietnam due to issues such as cost and Sino-US trade frictions. For the more intense technology and market competition in the future, JDI also stated that it will use the advantages of JOLED printed OLED technology to strengthen the development of new product technologies and gradually expand the sales of automotive panels. From the application side, OLED automotive display panels are currently mainly used in high-end car brands and new energy vehicles, occupying a limited market share. However, some people in the industry believe that OLED is expected to become the mainstream of automotive displays, and panel factories with technical and mass production advantages have considerable revenue prospects. In addition, with the maturity of Mini/Micro LED technology, the two technologies have become the focus of forward-looking technology layout of panel manufacturers. At the same time, with the development of large-scale automotive displays, Innolux also exhibited a 29-inch large-sized special-shaped curved integrated screen equipped with Mini LED technology this year, realizing the first single-screen, curved special-shaped automotive display. Qunguang Optoelectronics predicts that large-size automotive panels will be released in 2020. Tianma is also actively deploying Mini/Micro LEDs, and expressed its optimism about the application of Micro LEDs in automotive displays. However, at this stage, Tianma will focus on increasing the support of the A-si production line for the professional display business and increasing the penetration of LTPS products in the vehicle display. Automotive displays are a niche market, and many companies often use automotive displays as one of the main application scenarios when developing Mini/Micro LEDs. However, Mini/Micro LED has not yet entered the commercial stage in the automotive display market. Shenzhen Tianxianwei Technology Co., Ltd. was established in 2014. It is a high-tech enterprise integrating R&D, design, production and sales of LCD modules (display touch screen PCBA driver board). Vehicle LCD custom screens are welcome to come and customize.
