Are AR and VR New Markets for Ewing-Based Universal Display’s OLED Technology?
Universal Display Corporation (Ewing) announced that it had signed an evaluation agreement on organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), through its wholly owned subsidiary UDC Ireland, with Seeya Information Technology Company (Shanghai), which makes virtual-reality and augmented-reality devices.
Seeya’s products are found in various “near-to-eye” applications, such as head-mounted displays, smart glasses and electronic view finders, as well as in virtual reality and augmented reality. Additionally, Seeya products can be widely used in multiple fields that require specific ultra-tiny and ultra-high resolution display applications.
“We are pleased to be collaborating with Chinese Micro-OLED developer and manufacturer Seeya Technology,” said Steven V. Abramson, president and CEO of Universal Display Corporation.
“The augmented reality/virtual reality market is an exciting and broadening consumer electronics segment. With its high contrast ratio, fast refresh, and versatile form factor, we believe OLEDs are the best display solution for this growing field. We are delighted to work with and support Seeya Technology with our state-of-the-art, highly efficient, high-performing proprietary UniversalPHOLED materials.”
