Chinese panel makers including BOE, TCL CSOT, and Visionox have been acting keenly to expand AMOLED capacities, following the footsteps of Korea-based Samsung Display and LG Display, according to DIGITIMES Research's latest study

With silicon-based computing gradually constrained by the bottleneck of Moore's Law, many IT companies have started turning their development focuses to AI computing which requires a new architecture to resolve its performance and power consumption issues. Another focus is quantum computing, which is completely different from the existing silicon-architected systems, but has strong capability in resolving complicated problems, according to DIGITIMES Research's latest study

The quality of optical systems has a high influence on users' immersion experience when using VR, AR, or MR. With the birth of Micro LED-based micro-displays in 2022 and the popularity of optical waveguide technologies among optical combiner developers, the combination of the two technologies is expected to become the mainstream specification for AR head-mounted devices (HMDs), according to DIGITIMES Research's latest study

China remains the largest manufacturing industry in the world, making its industrial robot market a segment full of potential. Although around 70% of industrial robot suppliers in China are not domestic companies, they continue expanding capacities in the country despite concerns toward China's instability amid geopolitical and trade issues, according to DIGITIMES Research's latest study
