November 14, at BOE2017 Global Innovation Partners Conference, BOE Chairman Wang Dongsheng disclosed that originally scheduled to put into operation in 2018, Hefei 10.5 on behalf of the line will be put into operation ahead of schedule in December this year, hoping to achieve 'promotion 8K, universal 4K, alternative 2K, application 5G '.

From the world's first consumer-level 8K Sharp TV come out, 8K ecological forward-looking layout, and then to the BOE 8K mass production gives a timetable, the industry leader's homeopathic presence has undoubtedly injected rapid into the 8K era Tonic, so that it entered the fast track of development.Once, Foxconn Technology Group Vice President Dr. Chen Zhenguo even think 8K's first explosion will come in 2018. If this forecast can become a reality, then the market left QLED and OLED The time will not be too much.
Why choose 8K?
Display technology is not surprising, as human beings from the understanding of the moon to the depths of the universe, which is an inevitable trend.In recent years, the color TV market on the future direction of the development of technology has been debated, OLED bluntly, ', QLED advocated' quantum dots better than OLED '.
However, as still developing technology, OLED, QLED in the market at the same time, accompanied by burning screen, watch life is short, harmful substances may leak and other defects, a number of technical problems have not overcome the industry experts said OLED Industry is still in transition from technology research to large-scale production.More media reports that the real quantum dot technology is still in the laboratory research and development stage, applied to television products also need at least 10 years. , Let alone mass production.
By contrast, when it comes to 8K, the industry is more likely to use 'subversion' to describe this change. In contrast, 8K technology near the 'singularity' eruption is even more evident .Over the decades, Liquid crystal display technology in the world has the most complete and mature industrial chain, whether it is the production process, production capacity, raw materials have been very mature, which is the new display technology does not have a simple shipments from a group of considerable data, authoritative data Shows that in 2017 the global LCD TV shipments are expected to reach 173 million units, OLED TV sales are expected between 1.6 million -1.7 million units.
In addition, the father of 8K Sharp invested heavily in the field of 8K display and spent 61 billion yuan to set up an eco-industrial park with 8K displays in Zengcheng, Guangdong Province. The eco-system of 8K is accelerating comprehensively and accelerating the commercialization and civilization of 8K technology. According to the reality '. For consumers, the use of liquid crystal will be lower, through the liquid crystal to achieve consumer escalation is more realistic.
Long 8K incoming future may be
BOE 10.5 LCD panel line in advance, for the further rapid development of 8K industry provides a 'ammunition' .This layout can be seen as the result of industry trends.With Sharp, BOE 8K, is bound to bring more businesses To join this ranks, to promote faster development of 8K from upstream to downstream industries, maybe 8K outbreak earlier than the industry predicted earlier.
In fact, the BOE is not the first to get involved in the 8K enterprises, as early as CES 2013 show, Sharp introduced the 8K resolution TV.In August this year, Sharp world's first consumer-level 8K television once again to achieve leaps and bounds, More than just a 8K television set, it's a set of 8K ecosystems.

Dr. Chen Zhenguo, vice president of Foxconn Technology Group, demonstrated the Sharp 8K ecosystem
It is understood that a while ago the fire more "Galaxy Guard 2", is the use of 8K camera technology shot while NHK also use 8K live sports events many times; not long ago, Sharp in China to the media through the 8K live technology show Zou Ming boxing match; By 2020, the Tokyo Olympics have been identified using the 8K technology for live broadcasting, the audience can see the most high-definition most immersive competition scene.
In the 8K content we are most concerned about, it is understood that Sharp is working hard to promote content with major IP content in the 8K on the cooperation of Sharp in the world's future Luhu display technology and innovative applications R & D center project, Sharp will Through the base of the practical application of 8K +5 G research and development, to further consolidate 8K TV content in the short board, to provide users with a wealth of wonderful content viewing.In addition, Sharp 8K camera mass production will be achieved by the end of this year, will also pole The land to reduce shooting costs, 8K content expansion to provide a helping hand.
Ovien and Zhong Yi Kang two data companies have previously confirmed the 8K from the industrial chain level shows the broad prospects that the future of large-size TV must be the leading 8K.While the gradual shaping of 8K ecology, the future of people's social life will be great Change.With the ultra-fine picture quality of 8K, in the future, whether it is based on video calls, online shopping or even real-time traffic big data, it will break through the limitations of the existing technology and break the real and virtual final communication between people and the Internet limit.
At present, all walks of life in the industry to jointly promote the full layout of the 8K full industrial chain, so that the pace of the 8K era has become increasingly closer, I believe consumers can imagine, or even beyond the imagination of the future will become a reality.
