With its ultra-wide color gamut and innovative integrated technologies, Rainbow Optoelectronics continues to push the limits of ChLCD technology, further enhancing display performance. Its ultra-wide color gamut technology significantly improves display performance in bright light and indoor environments by increasing panel reflectivity and contrast. This not only enhances color performance but also effectively reduces energy consumption, achieving a perfect combination of display and energy saving, providing a superior visual experience. At this year's exhibition, Rainbow Optoelectronics showcased several innovative integrated technologies, including the world's first "Ming Display 2.0," which combines ChLCD with commercial LCD screens to achieve dual functions: an e-paper energy-saving mode and LCD animation playback. Another major innovation, "InfinityDisplay®," is a full-color, zero-power display with built-in solar power generation. This technology combines ChLCD with commercial solar panels, reflecting ambient light to display images and recovering light energy beyond visible wavelengths, converting it into electrical energy for storage. It requires no external power source or professional installation and is self-sufficient in sunny locations, demonstrating Rainbow Optoelectronics' strong capabilities in sustainable display technology.

Diverse application scenarios and large-size splicing modules drive a comprehensive upgrade in display technology. Rainbow Optoelectronics also showcased its large-size splicing module technology, specifically designed for scenarios requiring large display panels. This technology enables flexible splicing and wide-temperature outdoor operation, meeting the needs of smart cities and large-scale commercial advertising. This innovative technology foreshadows the further expansion of ChLCD technology's application scope and its key role in multiple fields. Furthermore, Rainbow Optoelectronics' full-color electronic paper technology has broken through the application limitations of traditional electronic paper, further expanding into diverse fields such as medical aesthetics, smart buildings, and smart retail. Its high-definition display effect can present extremely realistic skin texture, makeup layers, and high-quality printing effects, greatly enhancing the user's visual experience. These expanded application scenarios not only demonstrate the broad application prospects of Rainbow Optoelectronics' technology but also highlight its innovative leadership in the display industry.
