Decision

What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Too early to adopt

Why
Strong resolution credentials but it is a Fraunhofer research result at evaluation-kit stage with undisclosed full-color brightness and no commercial supply path.
Next
Monitor for a named licensing/foundry partner and a published brightness/efficiency figure for the full-color 2K panel post-SID before considering any pilot.

Constraints

Blockers

No named blocker is present in the current public projection.
