This represented a 3.8% increase from 2021, highlighting the growing reliance on mobile devices and contributing to the market's growth.

Companies in the TFT flat panel display market are focusing on advancing display technology with innovations such as optical bonding for better performance and durability. Optical bonding is a process that attaches a protective glass layer directly to a display, removing the air gap between the two. This enhances screen clarity, reduces glare, and improves the display's durability and responsiveness to touch. For instance, in September 2022, Optoma Corporation, a Taiwan-based consumer electronics and display technology company, launched a campaign called "Create. Connect. Inspire." The initiative introduced the Creative Touch 5-Series Interactive Flat Panel Displays, aimed at enhancing classroom engagement and collaboration. The displays featured high-resolution touchscreens, user-friendly interfaces, and seamless connectivity options, enabling educators to create interactive learning environments.

In July 2024, NGK Insulators, a Japanese battery manufacturing company, partnered with PanelSemi Corporation, a Taiwan-based flat panel display manufacturer, to combine their expertise in TFT circuit fabrication and advanced ceramic-based products. This partnership is expected to foster innovation in next-generation energy storage and display technologies, enabling the development of more efficient and compact electronic devices. NGK Insulators specializes in ultra-thin lithium-ion batteries and ceramic substrates, while PanelSemi focuses on TFT display technology.
