Chairman and CEO of AU Optronics Corp., Hsinchu, Taiwan, this is the Keynote by Mr. Paul Peng entitled “The Warring States Era of Display Technologies”. Over the past two decades, TFT-LCD has been the most dominant flat panel display technology among other technologies such as PDP, FED and OLED displays. With strong competitive advantages and ongoing technology enhancements, TFT-LCD continues to make breakthroughs, providing timely solutions and affordable luxury performance for fast-emerging display applications. In the warring states era of display technologies, will TFT-LCD continue to evolve and sustain its continuing dominance in the next decade? Pau Peng’s Current Positions is to be Chairman and CEO of AU Optronics Corp. (AUO), Chairman of Taiwan Display Union Association (TDUA), Chairman of Taiwan TFT LCD Association (TTLA), Executive Director of Taipei Computer Association (TCA). His Previous Experiences include President of AU Optronics Corp., President of AUO’s Display Business Operation, Executive VP of AUO’s Global Business Unit, General Manager of AUO’s IT Display Business Group, General Manager of AUO’s Suzhou module plant, the Company’s first overseas manufacturing facility, Vice President of AUO’s Supply Chain Management, Head of the Material and Production Department at BenQ’s plant in Malaysia. You can also watch my video filmed at the AUO Booth at SID Display Week 2017 featuring foldable AMOLED, comformed displays, fast response time, small bezel displays and more.

New Vision is a startup spinning out of the South China University of Guangzhou China showing their plastics based flexible AMOLED technology using an oxide TFT backplate, enabling entirely new designs of electronics as new categories of products with flexible unbreakable displays can be made. Nuvision currently shows 400ppi Flexible AMOLED but they will also be able to soon present Flexible OLED with pixel densities of up to 1000ppi.

Deepak Kumar Dubey, Research scholar at the Nano Organic Photonics Devices Lab, Dept. of Material Science & Engineering at the National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan presents their Blue hazardous free Candle light-style organic light emitting diode based lamp. Increasing studies report that blue light to possess a potential hazard to the retina of human eyes, secretion of melatonin and artworks. To devise a human and artwork-friendly light source and to also trigger a “Lighting Renaissance”, they demonstrate here how to enable a quality, blue-hazard free general lighting source on basis of low color-temperature organic light emitting diodes. This blue-hazard free candlelight OLED desk lamp (2,000K) is made by the collaborative effort of National Tsing Hua University and WiseChip Semiconductor Inc. It is presumably 20 times safer in terms of retinal protection and 10 times better for melatonin generation as compared with the 5000K blue light-enriched white light. It is friendly to human eyes, physiologies, artifacts, ecosystems, the environment, and night skies, besides being free from UV, flickering and glare etc.

Floating image displays can provide a tactile response in the form temperature transmission. For example an image of a fire can make you feel heat while an image of a snowflake provides a cold feeling. Infinity mirror air provides project light source vertically and horizontally using a small strip of light. Yamamoto university also has technology for projecting 3D objects into its hologram.

Lincoln Technology has the brightest display in the world at 7000 nits. 7000 nits is possible, but isn’t always necessary. Brighter displays are better for digital signage, general visibility and outdoor usage. Filmed at the SID Display Week.
