Key Trends in the Market

High dynamic range (HDR) can be defined as the next generation of colour clarity, accuracy, and realism in images and videos, which takes the viewing experience of people to the next level. HDR has the ability to preserve clarity and capture the image better than SDR (standard dynamic range) and thus, it is suitable for media demanding high contrast or mix light and shadows.

In imaging and photography, HDR is a measure of the light intensities, meaning, the range of the lightest and darkest tones within a picture. A high dynamic range camera allows users to capture a closer and more detailed picture. The shadows that might appear black or highlights that might fade to appear white are eliminated to provide a clear picture. While HDR was commonly used in traditional photography, its use has expanded to other segments like smartphones, monitors, televisions, and more.

• With the advent of smartphones and the rise in their proliferation, there has been a dramatic increase in interest towards capturing high quality pictures. This has contributed to the high dynamic range market demand to increase the dynamic range of captured pictures and videos.
• HDR-compatible televisions display images built from a wider range of colours and boast a high degree of brightness and darkness, delivering improved viewing experience. Hence, the increasing use of HDR to eliminate the limitations of older technologies like broadcast television and create a broader contrast is one of the key high dynamic range market trends.
• Some popular online streaming platforms such as Amazon Prime and Netflix support 4K HDR video. Along with having a reliable and fast internet connection, it is important that the streaming providers support HDR for consumers to be able to view it.

HDR 10 and the HDR 10+ are two novel types of high dynamic range which were first announced by the Consumer Technology Association as well as Samsung and Amazon Video, respectively. Further, Dolby Vision is also a new proprietary high dynamic range type, introduced by Dolby Laboratories. Many high-end 4K and OLED televisions from prominent manufacturers like LG Corporation support Dolby Vision and HDR10.

While HDR 10 or HDR10+ offer great picture quality, Dolby Vision is regarded as the most effective and is rapidly growing.

Market Share by Region

The production of electronics has rapidly grown in Asian countries, with the region holding around 60% share of global electronics manufacturing. Hence, the Asia Pacific represents a significant high dynamic range market share as countries like China and India are substantial producers of consumer electronic items.

Factors such as a strongly developed supply chain, availability of skilled labour, sophisticated manufacturing capabilities, and favourable government policies like the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, have also driven electronic manufacturing in the region. Due to robust manufacturing capabilities and strong consumer demand for consumer electronics owing to greater disposable income, the high dynamic range market growth in the region is expected to be considerable in the coming years.
