Samsung Display has decided to develop the super-resolution display with the support of South Korean government, who are investing 26.5 millions in the project 'EnDK', for the next five years.

Executive Director Chu Hye Yong of Samsung Display’s Base Technology Department said that it is challenging itself to develop super-resolution display with 2250 ppi, which is number of pixels per inch that is 3 times higher than previous resolution, and started development process with 13 domestic and foreign companies starting from the 1st of June.





The company expects to show a prototype of the product at the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics. The company leading this project, Samsung Display aims at building a 2250-ppi 11K display which will mimic a 3-D effect. And that is because an 11K display will be able to show even the slightest of details, which will be like watching it in 3-D.

“We are hoping that we are able to show such technologies at Pyeongchang Olympics if there is a progress in developing technologies. Although some might think that 11K as ‘over specification’ that consumers do not need, this can work as a basis for Korean display industry take another leap if related materials and parts improve through this.” Executive Director Chu stressed the importance of this technology for the future.
