Inventory layout and new enterprises in 2017 IR LED

Imperceptibly, 2017 will soon be over, we will usher in a new 2018. At this time, we are all in the past will summarize and thinking, to grasp the general trend is 2018 2018, let go more smoothly some.

In recent years, the major domestic and foreign LED companies have moved to major market segments, including automotive, small spacing, UV, IR infrared etc.. IR LED as a new area of investment of many manufacturers, is currently hovering between ideal and reality: on the one hand, the main market is expanding, including security monitoring, mobile biometrics (iris, face, fingerprint identification), digital medical (heart oxygen sensor), competitive electric notebook computer, touch panel, near infrared infrared spectrometer, amplification and virtual reality / eye tracking, vehicle sensing lidar and UAV, proximity switches, and the car with high gross profit; on the other hand, the current market size is relatively small, mainly used in market segmentation and special field, the market has just started, but the future potential can be expected.

Dramexchange consulting LED Research Center (LEDinside) latest report 2018 "infrared sensing applications market report" said that many infrared (IR) product application development, brings opportunities for the infrared industry. LEDinside 2017 LED estimate estimated market size (excluding the infrared optical sensor market) of about $439 million, 2018 will be $505 million, forecast to 2021 will grow to $697 million, mainly from growth dynamic security monitoring, face recognition, iris / infrared touch panel, so IR LED have great potential.

In the past 2017, the domestic and foreign enterprises have the layout of the IR LED? What are the new product launch? Therefore, LEDinside simple sorting out of relevant events of the 2017 IR LED, and for the industry reference.
