Pico projectors are small form factor projectors that use various microdisplay technologies at the core in their engines. They form an exciting new product category that will eventually be a hot new embedded feature in mobile phones. The market has already seen its first mobile phone with an embedded pico module with more models on OEM roadmaps. With a number of competing microdisplay technologies such as LCOS, DLP as well as emerging MEMS-based display technologies, there are a variety of approaches to building pico modules. There are also a number of potential applications ranging from accessory projectors to a wide variety of embedded applications that include consumer electronics, industrial and medical equipment, and of course, mobile phones.

This Research Report examines the potential market for pico projectors as an embedded feature in mobile phones. Their initial application will be in stand-alone accessory projectors but the embedded market holds the high-volume potential.
