Will LCDs be Replaced in VR?

In 2023, almost every VR device uses LCDs (Liquid Crystal Displays) to replace the real world with digital content, but a shift might be underway in 2024. Apple's Vision Pro is set to be one of the earliest VR devices to use OLED-on-Si technology, also known as micro-OLED, in a move to shrink headsets down whilst offering extremely high-quality images.

BOE Technology

Founded in 1993 in China, this year marks 30 years since the inception of BOE Technology. BOE is a leading internet of things (IoT) company and one of the global leaders in display technology. With over 80,000 patents, BOE has become one of the largest and important tech companies in the world. With regards to the display sector, BOE is particularly strong in delivering next generation LEDs and miniLEDs. More recently, this technology has been used effectively as a backlighting unit (BLU) to the traditional thin-film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD), creating a more uniform light source to this display type.
