ITRI shows microLED full-color microdisplay on PCB board vs. glass

Posted by – June 22, 2018

Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) demonstrated a full-color microdisplay with microLED on PCB board vs. the widespread practice of placing microLEDs on glass substrate, which is much flatter than the PCB . The significance of this technology pertains initially to indoor and outdoor signage because most signage is on PCB board, and not glass. IRTI projects that the industry will prefer PCB board because it can be produced at higher quantities and lower-costs than glass. They can also tie multiple modules together to create a modular display. Future applications include AR/VR and wearable.
