Embedded picoprojectors ready to break out

Research and Markets has added the "Embedded Picoprojectors Ready to Break Out Worldwide" report to its offering.

Projector technology has been miniaturizing to the point that a complete projector module can fit into 5cc or less. At the same time, personal devices are providing more entertainment but are limited by screen size. As a result, many companies are developing projectors to embed in a range of products, from cellphones to computers.

In-Stat believes this confluence of supply and demand will result in an industry exceeding $1.1 billion within five years. This research provides market sizing and five-year forecasts for products using picoprojector modules: accessory projectors, cellphones, computing devices, personal media players, and other consumer electronics.

This report also explains and evaluates competing illumination technologies (LED, laser) as well as MEMS and liquid crystal on silicon (LCoS) displays. Also included are profiles of key technology vendors.The forecasts and data provide key decision making data for companies offering picoprojector modules or components.

Manufacturers of media players, digital cameras and camcorders, mobile phones, and suppliers of laptop, netbook, ultra-mobile PCs, and mobile Internet devices will also need to understand the market dynamics and picoprojector technology.
