Samsung Display is aiming to reduce the power consumption of its display panels by over 50% to meet the needs of the so-called “AI era,” a senior executive said.
The display panel maker was developing technologies that remove all factors that influence power consumption in its display, Samsung Display executive vice president Yi Chung said during an industry conference in Jeju, South Korea.
The company was the world’s first to develop a panel technology that removes the polarizing film, which resulted in 30% increase in power efficiency, he said.
The AI era will see increased communication using images and video rather than text so the display’s specification and characteristics will become even more important, the executive said.
These displays will be able to last longer without needing to charge for at least a day and offer life-like resolution, he said.
Some of the technologies Samsung Display was developing for this was multi frequency driving, where an OLED panel applies different frequencies to manage power consumption, Yi said.
The company also had tandem structure displays, which house two emissive layers, to double their light efficiency, he said.
