Description

According to this study, the global Light Field market size will reach US$ 407 million by 2031.

The light field is a vector function that describes the amount of light flowing in every direction through every point in space. The space of all possible light rays is given by the five-dimensional plenoptic function, and the magnitude of each ray is given by the radiance. Michael Faraday was the first to propose (in an 1846 lecture entitled "Thoughts on Ray Vibrations") that light should be interpreted as a field, much like the magnetic fields on which he had been working for several years. The phrase light field was coined by Andrey Gershun in a classic paper on the radiometric properties of light in three-dimensional space (1936).

Strong compound growth rate

The Chinese market accounts for nearly 40%, with policy support and terminal demand jointly driving the expansion of the industry.

Core growth engine

Display technology iteration: The cost of naked-eye 3D light field display has decreased by 60%, promoting the penetration rate in scenarios such as theme parks and commercial advertisements to exceed 12%;

Medical field necessity: The 3D imaging surgical navigation system accounts for 28% of the application market, and the demand for precise medical treatment continues to be released;

Education popularization accelerates: Holographic classrooms cover 30% of key primary and secondary schools across the country, with an annual growth rate of over 45%.

Technical barriers

The dependence on imported high-end micro-lens arrays is still high, restricting the cost reduction of terminal equipment;

The integration of light field and AI computing power needs to break through the bottleneck of real-time rendering.

International competition risks

The US has added two key light field equipment to its export control list to China;

The content ecosystem is fragmented, and the ratio of professional institutions and UGC creators needs to be optimized to 3:7.
