Chances are you have interacted with TCL recently. After all, the world’s second largest TV manufacturer has fingers in many (visual) pies; other than the tens of millions of LCD television sets it sold over the past decade in over 160 countries, the brand has a popular smartphone range and a raft of B2B display products as well.
It is also a key panel provider for a lot of TV brands and offers visual solutions across a wide array of applications, including tablets, laptops, monitors, automotive displays, XR (Extended Reality) devices, wearables, commercial displays, and other fields.
A lot of these innovations come from TCL’s display development and manufacturing division, TCL CSOT (China Star Optoelectronics Technology) which was created in 2009, has more than 37,000 employees worldwide and has since invested more than USD 36 billion in CAPEX.
With over 8,000 employees working in R&D alone and in excess of 60,880 patent applications submitted worldwide, TCL CSOT is a force to be reckoned with.
Today, it is holding its 2024 Global Display Tech-ecosystem Conference (DTC 2024) in Guangzhou, China. TCL CSOT will showcase its latest technological achievements, industry-leading display solutions and strategic vision for what it sees as the future of the display industry.
At the core of TCL CSOT’s project is its new advanced display technology brand, APEX, which focuses on delivering ultimate product experiences through cutting-edge technologies and is announcing the mass production of its inkjet printing (IJP) OLED technology, a huge breakthrough that enhances display performance while reducing production costs and environmental impact. A rare win-win-win situation for all stakeholders involved.
TCL CSOT launched its advanced display technology brand, APEX, with a new value proposition: “Amazing pleasant display experience, Protective reliable vision health, Eco-friendly sustainable green and low carbon, and X unlimited future imagination.”
Leveraging core technologies such as HVA, HFS, IJP OLED, FMM OLED, MLCD and MLED as well as the use of eco-friendly materials and energy-saving technologies, combined with AI and more cutting-edge technologies, APEX is built on the brand core of “PACE TO APEX”.
Building upon 11 years of continuous research and innovation, TCL CSOT’s IJP OLED technology has achieved significant leaps and breakthrough in technical specifications, establishing new industry benchmarks. TCL CSOT has amassed a significant number of patents in the IJP OLED field, covering a wide range of applications including notebooks (NB), monitors (MNT), and televisions (TV).
TCL CSOT’s breakthrough in the mass production of IJP OLED is not only a milestone in its commercialization process but also marks the beginning of a new round of technological revolution in the display industry. IJP OLED technology, with its advantages of better image quality, lower power consumption and longer lifespan, will inevitably lead technology towards goodness and lay a solid foundation for the independent development of display technology.
If you are interested in knowing more about TCL CSOT’s IJP OLED technology process and the intrinsic characteristics of panels produced using that method, check the video below.
During the DTC 2024 event, a range of innovative display products will be unveiled including
1. The World’s First 2.8K IJP QD-EL Display (14″)
2. TCL CSOT’s First Mass-Produced 4K IJP OLED Professional Display (21.6″)
3. The World’s Lowest Driving Power Consumption OLED Display (6.36″)
4. World’s Best Picture Quality LCD TV Display (85″ WHVA)
These products will, in due time, be incorporated either in TCL’s own products or in OEM partners that will help bring TCL CSOT innovative solutions to millions of customers. The display giant is also embarking on a comprehensive “3+2+N” business plan to cover TV displays, IT displays, mobile displays, commercial displays and automotive displays as well as exploring new applications in fields like healthcare and education.
TCL CSOT’s ambitions go beyond that: it is working on a potential replacement for OLED with its Bluestar project that promises a whopping $1million award to a single recipient who will come up with a way to enhance the lifespan of blue QD-EL material. Likewise, the technology is so versatile and ground breaking that this prompted TCL CSOT to declare in a video that “in the future, printing display screens will be like printing newspapers”.
