Among the rest of their showcase at this year’s Display Week, LG showcased an OLEDoS (OLED on Silicon) display measuring 1.3-inches that can reach a brightness level of 10,000 nits. Aimed at the emerging VR market, this prototype display features 4K resolution and doubles the brightness level of the microOLED displays utilized in the Apple Vision Pro. According to LG Display, the key to achieving such a high brightness level in such a small area hinges on the company’s Micro Lens Array (MLA) technology.

“Despite being the size of a coin at 1.3-inch, it achieves an ultra-high brightness of 10,000 nits and an ultra-high resolution of around 4,000 ppi, which is in the 4K class. In addition, its color expression accuracy is realized by meeting more than 97% of the DCI-P3 standard color area of the Digital Cinema Initiatives (DCI),” LG explains. “OLEDoS for VR combines a newly developed high-performance OLED element with the company’s Micro Lens Array (MLA), a technology that maximizes light emittance, to improve brightness by about 40% compared with the standard level.”
Other technologies showcased by LG at Display Week included another 1.3-inch display, this one targeting the smartwatch market. According to the company, the 4K micro-display is equipped with light field technology that allows for a “glasses-free 3D” effect.
