XIAMEN, China, Nov. 12, 2024 — On November 6th, Tianma Global Innovation Conference 2024 (TIC 2024) was held in Xiamen, where Tianma unveiled its latest research and development breakthroughs. The event emphasized Tianma’s commitment to continuous exploration and innovation in display technology.

Tianma Chairman Peng Xuhui delivered a keynote speech titled “Perseverance,” providing insights from four perspectives.

First, Tianma remains committed to manufacturing, focusing on advanced capabilities, deploying cutting-edge production lines, developing leading technologies, and providing top-notch services.

Second, Tianma emphasizes independent research and development. The company believes that continuous innovation, market-driven strategies, and strategic foresight in new display technologies are essential to support customers and lead the market.

Third, Tianma has a strong focus on globalization. The company established its presence in overseas markets and engaged in the global automotive display sector in the early 1990s. Tianma provides premium products and services to clients worldwide by continuously improving product quality and delivery capabilities.

Finally, Tianma is dedicated to creating exceptional visual experiences. The company leverages boundless imagination and creativity to deliver smart display solutions that enhance the user experience.

Qin Feng, General Manager of Tianma’s R&D Center and Director of the Micro-LED Research Institute, delivered a technical keynote, sharing Tianma’s thoughts and advancements in display innovation. From 1983 to 2024, Tianma has consistently pushed the boundaries of display technology, moving from the TN and STN eras to the a-Si, LTPS, and Oxide LCD phases, and now into the realms of AMOLED and Micro-LED active displays. Tianma continues to strive to “create colorful life”.

Following the speeches, leaders of Tianma’s various technology divisions presented the latest innovative achievements.

Green and Healthy Organic Light Emitting Devices

The U9 emitting device and SLOD emitting device were introduced. The U9 device is designed for low power consumption and low blue light emission. The SLOD device utilizes a double-layer series organic emitting device architecture, reducing screen power consumption by 30% and achieving a global brightness of up to 2500 nits.

Extreme Narrow Border Technology

Leveraging advanced mechanical simulations and cutting-edge technological innovations, Tianma developed an integrated ultra-thin structure. Enhanced by high-precision sealing technology, the screen’s resistance to water and oil was significantly improved. This resulted in a bezel thickness of just 1.0mm on the top and 1.2mm on the sides and bottom, achieving an impressive 95% screen-to-body ratio for an unparalleled visual experience.

Multi-Form Flexible Technology

Tianma has developed a versatile full-scenario folding simulation platform, facilitating the rapid mass production of both left-right and top-bottom inward-folding products. This platform has also enabled the development of G-shaped triple-fold products.

Smart Interior for Intelligent Cockpit

By employing the industry’s best high-transparency, high-transmittance hidden display technology alongside an innovative Mini-LED backlight design, Tianma achieves exceptional image quality and a seamless aesthetic. This approach also reduces module thickness and lowers power consumption.

Ambient Light Sensing & Near-Field Communications for Smart Cockpits

Leveraging the existing LTPS manufacturing process, it is now possible to seamlessly integrate features such as environmental light sensing and near-field communication directly into automotive display panels and modules.

Flip Cell Full-Screen Technology

By incorporating a synergistic blend of the Tcon Embedded Driver and Flip Cell technologies, Tianma created a comprehensive full-screen technology platform, increasing the screen-to-body ratio of IT products from 88% to 96%.

Low-Power Consumption Technology Platform

Bolstered by the SFT-Pro pixel optimization technology, intelligent frequency conversion, and embedded driver solutions, Tianma reduced the power consumption of the panel by 45%. Combined with its full-screen technology, these innovations constitute Tianma’s LEAF technology platform.

Splicing Micro-LED Display Technology

Utilizing Tianma’s proprietary GOA in AA backplane driver design, along with independently developed side-wiring technology, and precise and efficient full-laser massive transfer process, Tianma achieved an ultra-fine pitch design (Pitch=0.4mm), enabling borderless displays.

At the conference, Tianma also officially released its “Tianma Carbon Neutrality White Paper,” with the President of Tianma sharing the company’s progress in carbon neutrality, firmly committing to fostering a green, low-carbon, and sustainable future.

Tianma is committed to collaborating with innovators worldwide, collectively charting a path to unparalleled heights in the display industry.
