Azumo, a display technology company that’s 10 times more energy efficient than traditional backlit LCDs and produces brighter, sharper screen resolution in sunlight, today announced a partnership with FIH Mobile(Ticker:2038.HK), the leading electronic manufacturer in the worldwide mobile device industry, to design and manufacture the next generation of frontlit LCD 2.0™ reflective displays.
As a subsidiary of Hon Hai Technology Group (Foxconn) (TWSE:2317), the world’s largest electronics manufacturer, FIH Mobile has accumulated extensive knowledge and decades of experience in delivering high-complexity and customized manufacturing solutions, which enable Azumo to scale existing manufacturing capabilities for its reflective frontlit technology at multiple facilities in Mexico and China. To extend the collaboration, the two firms have decided to co-develop the next generation of adaptable LCD 2.0™ products by leveraging their core strengths.
“The future of display technology will be lightweight, battery-efficient, and visible in any light,” said Paul Hsiung, Vice President of FIH Mobile. “Through our partnership with Azumo, we provide access to a responsive supply chain that delivers the future at scale to new customers, new markets, and new battery-powered displays across the increasingly digital world, from smart wearables to automotives, electronic billboards, medical, military devices and beyond.”
By using ambient light to conserve battery life and brighten displays in all lighting conditions, Azumo’s LCD 2.0™ technology helps device makers:
“Traditional LCD technology is battery-hungry, harsh on the eyes, hard to see outside, and not suited for how we use our devices in 2022,” said Mike Casper, CEO of Azumo. “Together with FIH Mobile, we’re creating displays for devices to go anywhere, last longer, and work better for people and businesses.”
