In December 2019 Taiwan-based PMOLED display maker RiTDisplay announced that it plans to launch its first MicroLED displays in 2020. Last week during SID Displayweek 2020 the company demonstrated its first prototype, as can be seen in the video below.
The company did not reveal any technical specifications or discuss any commercialization plans.
In May 2019 RiTDisplay announced a strategic partnership and share swap with MicroLED developer PlayNitride. In June 2019 it was reported that a US-based smartwatch brand will start a design process in Q3 2019 using a micro-LED display that was co-developed by RiTDisplay and PlayNitride. RiT was reportedly to start shipping samples in Q4 2019.
There were some conflicting reports, but some suggest that this customer could be no other than Apple. It will be interested to see what kind of displays RiTDisplay will release in 2020 and who is the company's first customer.
