1p. The Core of the XR Era: Micro Display “OLEDoS” With the launch of Samsung’s first XR headset ‘Galaxy XR’, last month, XR (Extended Reality) has been gaining significant attention. XR is a technology that presents virtual worlds as if they were real. In this card news, we will explore micro display OLEDoS, a core technology of the XR era. 2p. What Is XR (Extended Reality)? XR = A technology that expands reality VR (Virtual Reality) A fully digital virtual environment Experience a completely separate virtual world, disconnected from the physical reality. AR (Augmented Reality) An environment where digital information is layered over the real world Enhancing real-world experiences with digital overlays. MR (Mixed Reality) An environment where the physical and virtual worlds are blended the reconstructed real world (captured through cameras, etc.) interacts with and can be manipulated alongside digital virtual information. XR is an umbrella term that encompasses VR, AR, and MR. It is a technology that expands reality by allowing users to enter a virtual space or overlay digital information onto the real world. Beyond gaming, it can be applied to meetings, education, design, shopping, and many other fields. 3p. How XR Devices Work Structure of XR devices lenses (optical systems) / actual display size / perceived screen size Most head-mounted XR devices use ultra-high-resolution micro displays to present virtual images. Although the actual display size is extremely small—around one inch—the lenses (optical systems) inside the XR device adjust the perceived screen size and focal distance. As a result, users can see what appears to be a very large screen floating several meters in front of them. Recently released products such as Samsung’s ‘Galaxy XR’ and Apple’s ‘Vision Pro’ are equipped with an OLEDoS, an ultra-high-resolution micro display. 4p. What Is OLEDoS, the Core of XR Devices? Silicon Wafer OLEDoS stands for “OLED on Silicon.” While conventional OLEDs are fabricated on glass substrates, OLEDoS forms OLEDs on silicon wafers, which are typically used in semiconductor manufacturing. Because this method leverages semiconductor processes, it allows pixel structures to be made far finer, enabling ultra-high resolutions of several thousand PPI (pixels per inch) even at very small display sizes. 5p. Ultra-High Resolution for Even More Realistic Image Quality! Pixel size comparison: smartphone displays vs. XR displays 416PPI (Galaxy S25) 4,032PPI (Galaxy XR) OLEDoS packs pixels roughly ten times more densely than a smartphone display. For example, Samsung’s ‘Galaxy S25’, released this year, delivers a resolution of about 400 PPI, whereas the Galaxy XR achieves an astonishing resolution of over 4,000 PPI. Because XR headsets position the screen right in front of the user’s eyes, the resolution must be extremely high so that individual pixels are not visible. Only with ultra-high resolution can XR devices display crisp images without the screen-door effect or aliasing, enabling visuals that look remarkably lifelike. 6p. How Advanced Is OLEDoS Technology Today? Samsung Display showcased its latest OLEDoS technologies at the AWE USA, the world’s largest XR exhibition, this past June. Among the products on display were a 1.4-inch 5,000 PPI RGB OLEDoS, featuring the highest resolution in the industry, with a pixel count three times higher than that of a 4K TV; a 1.3-inch RGB OLEDoS with screen brightness reaching 20,000 nits; and a 1.3-inch White OLEDoS offering a 4,000 PPI resolution. Through these diverse products, Samsung Display demonstrated its leadership in micro display technology. 7p. The XR Market Expected to Grow Rapidly XR panel shipment OLEDoS share of the total revenue market in 2030 Source: Market research firm Omdia The outlook for the XR display market is as bright as the rapidly advancing OLEDoS technology. Market research firm Omdia predicts that the XR display market will continue to grow each year. By 2030, XR panel shipments are expected to increase by approximately 5.5 times. In particular, OLEDoS is projected to account for about 80% of the total revenue market, solidifying its position as the core display technology for XR. 8p. In XR, immersion ultimately depends on how natural the world appears right before your eyes. OLEDoS plays a central role in this by delivering highly detailed visuals from an ultra-small display, creating a deeper sense of immersion. Get ready to experience the lifelike world that OLEDoS will bring to the next era of XR!
