LG Display made an announcement on the 13th that Cinematic Sound OLED (CSO) where OLED(organic light emitting diode) display makes sound by vibrating itself has been listed as a national standard (KS) established by The Korean Agency for Technology and Standards.

Sound-making displays are technologies that can only be implemented by OLED displays that have thin fault structures that emit light on their own. It is a new concept of technology that allows displays to make sounds by acting as vibrations and LG Display developed it for the first time in the world in 2016 and succeeded in commercializing it.

Because the display makes sound directly the characters on the screen feel as if they are talking directly providing a high sense of immersion and vivid realism. Because the existing standard was made based on regular speakers there was a limit to objectively evaluating and measuring the differentiated advantages of sound-making displays.

In order to become a leading technology in the global market amid fierce global competition among companies it is essential to create and preempt recognized standards from countries. LG Display has been pushing for standardization of CSO after establishing an organization dedicated to establishing evaluation methods and standards that can be recognized.

It is predicted that CSO will quickly expand to various markets such as Auto and Digital Signage following OLED TV.

It is very meaningful in that CSOs technology has been recognized due to the standard listing of sound-making displays with infinite scalability and marketability said Yoon Soo-young chief technology officer of LG Display. We will continue to strengthen our technology leadership and lead next-generation OLED markets through continuous technological innovation.
