SID Display Week 2025, the premier global event for display technology, is currently underway in San Jose, California. Dr. Frank Ko, CEO and President of AUO, has served as a keynote speaker for SID, delivering a speech titled "Redefining Displays: Inspiring New Possibilities." Dr. Ko has a deep passion for the display industry and has been following the SID conference for over 30 years. With his forward-thinking vision and keen insights into display technology, he has led AUO as a pioneer in smart display solutions. Through the power of AI, AUO is reshaping the visual innovation experience of displays, deeply integrating them into our lives and defining the next generation of smart living.
As AI technology rapidly evolves, the lines between the real and virtual worlds are increasingly blurring, making display interfaces a crucial gateway to our future “vision.” During his keynote address, Dr. Ko stated that displays were once merely screens for digital spaces, limited by interactions like mice and touchscreens. However, with the booming development of AI, which is revolutionizing applications like the metaverse, augmented reality, and AI robots, future display technology is evolving towards a more immersive, interactive, and integrated realm. It could even achieve innovative and integrated solutions like “Display on Demand,” appearing only when needed. This will transform displays into a vital interactive medium that breaks down the barriers between reality and virtual interfaces, fostering an innovative “Display Everywhere” mindset in our lives.

Dr. Ko pointed out that to meet various high-specification display demands, such as those that transcend time and space and span across different fields, future AI end-use devices will require more interconnected display interfaces. In this context, Micro LED advanced display technology will become the ultimate weapon dominating AI applications. Dr. Ko stated that Micro LED display technology, with its high-definition transparency, seamless large-scale tiling, and flexible form factors, combined with AI capabilities, is expanding Micro LED applications from high-end displays to multi-layered hardware and software integrated solutions in mobile, retail, medical, entertainment, education, and AI optical communication. This will bring new growth momentum to the industry. AUO has been proactively investing in Micro LED display technology for many years, achieving significant breakthroughs and innovations. The company is also dedicated to improving product yield and cost-effectiveness, leading the Micro LED ecosystem, accelerating product commercialization, and ultimately seizing the dominant position in advanced Micro LED display technology applications.
Dr. Ko further pointed out that "mobility applications" will become the most promising pioneers for Micro LED display technology. He highlighted the Smart Cockpit 2025, jointly developed by AUO and BHTC, as a leading example of a smart cockpit. This innovation offers a range of automotive Micro LED Display HMI solutions, including the Virtual Sky Canopy, XR Interactive Window, and intuitive Morphing Center Control. These features redefine the design concept of smart cockpits, enhance human-machine interaction, and pave the way for a more intelligent and intuitive driving experience. This clearly demonstrates AUO's leading capabilities in Micro LED technology innovation, creating an extraordinary experience for the future of mobility.
At the same time, Dr. Ko highlighted that to address the environmental issues stemming from the fast-paced development of displays and AI's heavy computing demands, AUO is committed to its "Commit to Care" principle. The company is incorporating green innovation in multiple areas including using recycled and eco-friendly materials, sustainable manufacturing processes, green product design, and end-use product applications. AUO leads the industry with a systematic strategy to reduce the environmental impact of its products throughout their lifecycle, promoting greener and more efficient technology applications. This approach significantly enhances the synergy between the company’s R&D capabilities and industry resources, allowing it to continuously exert a sustainable impact within the collaborative, cross-field value chain.
At this major global display technology event, Dr. Ko emphasized that future AI development will permeate all aspects of life, making displays a crucial interactive medium. As a key player in realizing humanity's future "vision," AUO will live up to expectations by continuously driving innovation and breakthroughs in display technology. The company strives to create richer experiences and entirely new possibilities for users worldwide, leading humanity to see the future in a new light.
