[Asia Economy Reporter Jeong Hyunjin] LG Display announced on the 16th that it will participate for the first time in the Busan International Railway Technology Industry Exhibition and showcase transparent OLED panels for railway use. The Busan International Railway Technology Industry Exhibition is the only specialized railway exhibition in Korea, with over 100 global railway-related companies participating, and will be held for three days until the 19th.


The 55-inch transparent OLED panel with 40% transparency unveiled by LG Display this time is a railway-specialized product that can replace train windows. It features special reinforced glass applied to withstand shocks and vibrations better than existing panels, making it suitable for trains running at high speeds on tracks. At this exhibition, LG Display will present an upgraded version of its existing transparent OLED panels for railway use.


An LG Display official said, "By applying transparent OLED, it is possible to provide various operation information, advertisements, and entertainment content while viewing the outside scenery, so it is expected to have high utility not only in subways and high-speed trains but also in tourist trains."



Since last year, LG Display has supplied transparent OLED panels to subways in Beijing, Shenzhen, and Fuzhou in China, and plans to expand its business to domestic markets as well as Asia, Europe, and North America. Oh Chang-ho, Vice President and Head of LG Display’s TV Business Division, said, "We will continue to provide solutions that maximize the value of space through form factor innovations achievable only with OLED."
