In recent years, due to the strong support of national industrial policies, the improvement of public awareness of energy conservation and environmental protection, and the continuous improvement of LED product characteristics and the gradual decline in cost, the LED downstream market has grown rapidly.
According to the research data of the High-tech Research Institute LED Research Institute (GGII), the market size of China's LED downstream applications in 2016 was 369.7 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 15.71%, which was equivalent to that in 2015. GGII expects that the output value of China's LED downstream applications will reach 455.1 billion yuan in 2017, an increase of 20.4%.
Among them, LED lighting as the largest downstream application market, the increase and growth rate are considerable. With the overall recovery of the LED lighting market, the demand for LED chips continues to grow. In the future, with the outbreak of the small-pitch market and the continuous rapid growth of the lighting market demand, the LED chip industry will promote steady and rapid growth. GGII expects that the output value of China's LED chip industry will reach 18.8 billion yuan in 2017, up 29.6% year-on-year; in 2020, the output value of China's LED chip industry will exceed 28.8 billion yuan.
However, looking ahead, as the price competition pressure in the general lighting market is rising, future manufacturers will play a very important role in keeping profit, high-power modules and other niche products. Among them, infrared LED will be one of the most important new areas of concern.
Non-Blu-ray LED technology is rapidly emerging after Blu-ray LEDs are immersed in the blue ocean market due to lighting price competition, especially after the Samsung Electrincs Galaxy S8 and Apple's next-generation iPhone will be equipped with biometric technologies such as 3D Sensing. The outbreak of growth is gaining momentum.
As some Chinese manufacturers cut into the infrared LED market, some of the more mainstream IR LED prices fell rapidly. However, with the emergence of various emerging applications, such as security industrial monitoring, virtual reality devices, and applications such as face and iris recognition, the output value of infrared LEDs continues to grow. The estimated size of the infrared LED market in 2017 (excluding the optical sensing component market) is estimated at approximately $441 million. It is estimated that it will grow to $699 million by 2021.
Blu-ray LED overcapacity IR LED demand rises
The overcapacity of blue LEDs, but the application of infrared LEDs in the rise of various emerging demand, the growth in 2017 has been highly noticed. Jibang Consulting pointed out that in addition to the application of a wide range of security monitoring, emerging applications including face and iris recognition, heartbeat oxygen sensing, virtual reality (AR), vehicle sensing, etc., will bring unlimited business opportunities.
At present, the infrared LED market is widely used in mobile phones and automotive markets, including security monitoring, iris/face recognition, heartbeat oxygen detection, time of flight, and structured light. Technology, automated driving assistance systems, etc. In recent years, handheld applications such as smart phones have gradually combined with identity authentication and payment systems, and more emphasis on user security, so the functional requirements for biometrics have become more stringent.
As for the rise of mobile payment needs, it has pushed up the demand for facial and iris identification products. Under the introduction of iris recognition by Fujitsu and Samsung mobile phones, it is expected to attract other mobile phone brands to follow up and even further expand the "arms race" to improve hardware specifications.
In addition, the reflective heartbeat oxygen sensor module is mainly based on healthy exercise function at present, and is mainly sold to wearable devices. If future applications can be directed toward home care, education and training, and driving attention assistance systems, the demand for reflective heartbeat oxygen sensor modules will be boosted.
In terms of virtual reality, it is estimated that the output value of infrared LEDs on virtual reality devices will be US$14 million in 2016 and will continue to grow in the future. In addition to the three major virtual reality devices in 2017, the shipments will be increased. Newcomers such as Tencent, Nintendo, Microsoft, and Dell are about to enter this market.
Finally, infrared LEDs and infrared lasers (VCSELs) have been used in the automotive market. Since 2000, international automakers have developed automotive safety technologies. Since 2010, safety technology has gradually extended to cabin-related research. It is estimated that the development focus after 2020 is to detect the immediate physiological perception and state of the driver to reduce the accident. As the depot increases the added value of the vehicle, various infrared sensing is also introduced, and the automatic driving assistance system (ADAS) brings more business opportunities to the infrared sensing market.
Taiwan enterprises have been cultivating for a long time, and the new contest is in full swing.
Infrared has been developing for a long time, and there are many established manufacturers in Taiwan. In terms of Taiwanese factories, the manufacturers that have the ability to produce IR LED chips are crystalline, optical, etc., with post-packaging capabilities such as Yanjing, Yiguang and Ronda.
Inspired by emerging popular applications such as iris recognition, optical fingerprint recognition, face recognition, nighttime driving distance and nighttime security monitoring, Taiwan LED Factory accelerated the layout of high-power infrared LED technology in 2017, including Jingdian, Lite-On, Yiguang, Dongbei, Guangqi, etc. have regarded infrared LEDs as key products.
