Today, displays are a central element of electronic systems – far beyond their traditional role as output devices. They directly influence user interaction, power consumption, thermal behavior and ultimately the overall system architecture. Whether in embedded systems, medical devices, test equipment or mobile applications, developers must define the display technology early in the design phase. This decision has a direct impact on hardware, software and mechanical integration – and is difficult and costly to change later.
