New Product Launches, Partnerships, Contracts, Collaborations, Acquisitions, and Expansions in the Rugged Display Market
The display market has witnessed significant technological advancements in the last five years. The traditional display devices that were based on cathode ray tube (CRT) technology were bulky and space-consuming. Hence, they could not meet the requirements of the industrial applications. Eventually, display devices evolved to LCD technology-based slim and thin bezel designs. These display devices now come with various advanced features such as high resolution, durability, environmental stability, readability, operation in a wide temperature range, ruggedness, improved contrast ratio, higher display brightness, and low power consumption. This has led to the development of rugged display devices that are suitable for use in industries such as government, aerospace, and defense; automotive & transportation; industrial; and healthcare, where the environment is hazardous and challenging.
The value chain of the rugged display market comprises research & product development, display panel manufacturing, device assembly & testing, distribution, and marketing and post-sale services.
