In-Stat: DVI on the Decline as HDMI and DisplayPort Grow
(Wireless News Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)
DVI, facing strong competition from other technologies, including HDMI
and the DisplayPort standard in the PC market, will begin a steep
decline in 2008, reports In-Stat.
DVI will decline from 112 million device shipments in 2007 to just 3
million device shipments in 2011, the high-tech market research firm
says. Digital visual interface (DVI) and high-definition multimedia
interface (HDMI), are related, high-bandwidth, unidirectional,
uncompressed digital interface standards.
"HDMI's success continues to be enormous, especially in the Consumer
Electronics (CE) segment," says Brian O'Rourke, In-Stat analyst. "Close
to 90 percent of digital television (DTV) shipments in 2007 are
expected to include HDMI. In addition, HDMI penetration of large
markets such as set top boxes continues to increase."
Recent research by In-Stat found the following:
- 143 million HDMI-enabled devices will ship in 2007.
- DVI-enabled device shipments will decline sharply through 2011, due
primarily to competition from DisplayPort.
- Several PC original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) released
HDMI-enabled mediacentric notebook PCs in 2007, including Toshiba, Sony
and Hewlett-Packard.
The research, "DVI and HDMI in 2007: DisplayPort Looms While HDMI
Booms," covers the worldwide market for DVI and HDMI. It contains
analysis and annual worldwide forecasts for the penetration of DVI and
HDMI into 19 different applications in PCs, PC peripherals, CE, and
communications devices. Five-year average selling price forecasts for
discrete DVI and HDMI transmitters and receivers are provided. Past
history of penetration forecasts back to 2005 is also included, in
addition to brief profiles of major DVI and HDMI transmitter, receiver,
and switch suppliers.
