Apple is set to launch its first-generation Mixed Reality Headsets later this year, with Sony and LG being the initial suppliers of the displays used in the XR headsets. The displays used in these headsets are expected to be a technological breakthrough, with OLEDoS (OLED on Silicon) displays providing an ultra-high resolution of 3000-4000ppi. These displays will be smaller than an inch in diagonal length and will use silicon wafer-based CMOS substrates, unlike normal OLED display panels that use glass substrates.
Compared to a normal OLED display used in a smartphone, which has an average resolution of 55ppi, the display used in an AR or a VR device requires an average resolution of 3,500ppi for a more realistic AR experience. The OLEDoS displays are expected to provide a highly immersive experience for users, with an extremely high resolution that allows for detailed and realistic imagery.
Sony and LG are said to be ahead of Samsung in the development of these displays and will be the initial suppliers of the displays for Apple’s upcoming XR device. However, Samsung is also working on developing an RGB OLEDoS display and is expected to bring out a 3500ppi FMM (Fine Metal Mask) with the help of APS Holdings.
Apple had also asked both LG and Samsung in the past to develop such a high-resolution display, and with Samsung’s collaboration with APS Holdings, it is likely to meet Apple’s requests. APS Holdings has also developed an ultra-high resolution FMM sheet and mask of 4,000ppi, which is better than the 3,500ppi FMM made with Samsung’s collaboration.
The first generation of Apple’s XR headsets will feature two OLEDoS displays, and while Apple is initially relying on Sony and LG for their displays, it is likely to stop relying on Sony in the future since the brand already has its own range of gaming consoles and may become a competitor to Apple.
The use of OLEDoS displays in Apple’s upcoming Mixed Reality Headsets is expected to set a new standard in the XR devices market, providing users with a highly immersive and realistic experience. The collaboration between Apple, Sony, LG, Samsung, and APS Holdings is indicative of the cutting-edge technology that is driving the development of these devices, which are expected to revolutionize the way we interact with technology.
