As the most transformative technological force today, AI is redefining application scenarios in the display industry. AUO, as a leading global supplier of display technologies and solutions, is leveraging its group resources to accelerate cross-domain hardware and software system integration, continuously leading new smart applications in diverse vertical fields. At Touch Taiwan 2025, under the theme "Beyond Vision, Create the Ultimate," AUO showcased diverse and innovative solutions empowered by AI and enabling efficient collaboration in smart retail, enterprise, and healthcare settings, striving to create a high-value, comprehensive vertical ecosystem.
AUO is steadily advancing its dual-axis transformation strategy, with its display business as the foundation, and continuously deepening its value transformation efforts. Led by its subsidiary Datang, the company is joining forces with its partners Space4M, Avocor, ComQi, Jector, and Rise Vision to flexibly expand across domains and introduce advanced display technologies and excellent hardware and software integration capabilities into everyday applications. Together, they are striving to expand into vertical markets, create diversified and customized innovative products, and comprehensively improve operational efficiency and user experience.
Smart Retail: End-to-End AI Intelligent Services Alleviate Labor Shortages and Boost Operational Efficiency <br /> In response to labor shortages, rising costs, and the need to grasp rapid changes in consumer behavior, Datang leverages its profound display technology, combined with AIoT and cloud management platforms, to provide end-to-end AI intelligent services for precise marketing, price adjustments and promotions, and service automation. This not only optimizes operational management efficiency and costs and enables flexible manpower allocation, but also creates a new model of green and sustainable smart retail.
Precision Marketing Through Advertising Monitoring – Understanding customer needs and providing customer-oriented services is a crucial part of creating a comprehensive retail experience. Outside stores, Daqing uses outdoor display billboards incorporating AI facial recognition technology to instantly identify consumer characteristics such as gender and age, analyzing data to deliver targeted advertising, attracting customers and increasing foot traffic. Inside the store, Space4M utilizes displays equipped with AI cameras to recognize customer features and detect their gaze patterns. Cross-analysis by the backend system generates reports to optimize advertising strategies, achieving precise marketing both inside and outside the store. Leveraging AI-powered smart shopping guides improves advertising effectiveness and increases revenue.
In-store advertising price changes – To improve the efficiency of dynamic changes in product information or prices, Daqing debuted its low-power, full-color "aecoPost e-paper solution." Requires only a small amount of power to update the screen, and its convenient, wire-free design allows for flexible application and placement. Advertising content can be easily managed and scheduled via the cloud or a mobile app, significantly reducing paper waste and energy consumption, making it a powerful tool for in-store marketing. The "aecoTag e-shelf label solution" integrates the ComQi cloud management system, simultaneously driving all digital signage and e-shelf labels in the store, remotely controlling dynamic price changes, improving store staff efficiency, and reducing paper price card printing and logistics costs. This achieves optimized inventory management, effectively increasing sales, and moving towards a low-carbon, paperless sustainable goal.
Automating contactless services – With the widespread adoption of mobile payments and the rise of contactless business opportunities, Datang has optimized its AI self-checkout machines. Customers can log into the membership system simply by facial recognition. While scanning to pay, AI camera sensors help confirm whether items have been successfully added to the shopping cart, improving the accuracy of self-checkout. By automating services, it saves time waiting in line and optimizes the use of manpower, providing a smoother shopping experience.
Smart Enterprise: Comprehensive Business Applications for Seamless Collaboration in Multinational Corporations <br /> Integrated Virtual and Physical Meetings and Presentations – As remote work and hybrid work environments become the norm for corporate communication, establishing efficient collaboration models and promoting more realistic and real-time interaction between virtual and physical elements is crucial. Daqing, in partnership with Avocor and Rise Vision, showcased comprehensive business applications, including a modular 138-inch all-in-one LED display and a 92-inch interactive whiteboard (IFPD) with a 21:9 ultra-wide aspect ratio. Presenters can easily share content, effectively improving meeting collaboration efficiency. This product series is equipped with the Rise Vision content management system, allowing administrators to play specific content and information at designated times, effectively managing the delivery and consistency of corporate information. The interactive smart lectern, showcased in collaboration with strategic partners, features dual-screen interaction and advanced multi-touch capabilities. Combined with diverse connectivity options, it allows easy switching between writing and viewing modes, providing users with an efficient and intelligent presentation experience. It aligns with global development, optimizes cross-border remote communication, and constructs a flexible and diverse meeting room collaboration environment.
Daqing continues to deepen its capabilities in hardware and software integration solutions. By combining strategic investments in companies such as Avocor, Jector, and Rise Vision, it actively expands its development in the education and enterprise sectors, provides diverse display application products, and utilizes channel resources to sell to end-brand customers, thus building a complete ecosystem value chain.
Smart Healthcare: 3D Surgical Solutions Implemented, Enhancing Both Medical Communication and Surgical Safety
3D Surgical Solutions – Focusing on the booming development of minimally invasive surgery, the surgical process increasingly relies on displays to deliver precise images. DARKING, leveraging its leading 3D display technology, offers the "SurgiEyes Robotic Surgery Real-Time 3D Solution" and "Naked-Eye 3D Solution" for surgical teams and surgeons. These solutions integrate advanced 3D image processing with exclusive 3D vertical wide viewing angle and wide color gamut display technology. Surgical teams can see clear 3D images in real-time, synchronized with the surgeon's perspective, improving communication efficiency and safety, and facilitating remote teaching or consultation. The naked-eye 3D medical display and eye-tracking technology are designed for single-person use, suitable for physician learning or consultation scenarios, and can also be applied to the main control panel of surgical robots, allowing doctors to perform surgery in a more comfortable posture, improving surgical safety and surgeon comfort.
Currently, the SurgiEyes robotic surgery real-time 3D solution has been successfully implemented in nearly 30 medical institutions in Japan in partnership with SkyJet, providing patients with safer and higher-quality medical services.
AUO continues to deepen and expand its vertical fields and extend its value chain to create a co-creation and shared prosperity smart field ecosystem. During Touch Taiwan 2025, the AUO booth will host "2025 AUO Talk," bringing together a stellar lineup of its subsidiaries to deliver keynote speeches on seven major themes and related success stories. These presentations will share insights such as "Breaking Boundaries to Create Infinite Possibilities: Micro LED Leading a New Era of Diverse Applications," "FindARTs: A New Vision for Art Crossover and Sustainable Experiences," and "Smart Displays and Doubling Revenue: A New Revolution in Digital Retail—Turning Screens into Cash Cows." The presentations will showcase AUO's empowerment of a new smart field ecosystem and demonstrate how display technology is changing lives.
