The MicroLED Industry Association published its first soft-standard document, that focuses on microLED microdisplays. Most analysts and developers agree that the AR market is one of the targets for microLED displays. MicroLED microdisplays offer many advantages for AR developers – mainly very high brightness and high efficiency.

In this soft-stsandard document, the MicroLED Industry Association provide guidelines for microdisplay developers and device makers, identifying the different properties of microLED microdisplays and suggesting how to disclose display metrics and performance.

On February 17^th 2025, the MicroLED Industry Association will host a private webinar focused on submicron LED technology. During this webinar, association members will look into sub-micron LED technology, understand the latest status and research innovation and discuss how submicron LEDs should take part in the future microLED industry.

The webinar will feature two speakers, and will follow with an open Q&A session.

Almost a year ago, the MicroLED Industry Association published its first MicroLED Industry Roadmap and State-of-the-Industry document, covering microLED technology trends in 2024, details the MicroLED Association’s roadmap and projections for the future of the microLED industry and market, by application segments. 

The document has been well received, with over 800 downloads to date, and with several leading technology news sites and blogs, from all over the world covering the roadmap publication. ,Some examples follow.
