Inkjet Printing Manufacturing Technology and Equipment for Advanced Displays

China’s advanced display industry leads the world in terms of production scale, however, its dependence on imported core manufacturing equipment has emerged as a key bottleneck that hinders autonomous and controllable industrial development. In response to the evolving trends of next-generation display technologies—namely large size, ultra-high resolution, and flexibility—the research team has focused on the independent R&D of inkjet printing manufacturing technologies and equipment. By innovating high-precision inkjet processes, developing independently controllable nozzle arrays, and establishing a full closed-loop intelligent measurement and control system for inkjet manufacturing, we have successfully developed high-precision inkjet equipment compatible with G4.5/G6 production lines, and achieved industrial-scale deployment. This advancement establishes a new technical pathway for the mass production of flexible and ultra-large-area displays.

Glass at the Center of AI Infrastructure: Advancing Packaging Solutions

Artificial intelligence continues to accelerate new waves of datacenter buildout and system redesign, driving a step-change in packaging complexity. As architectures grow denser and larger, small distortions translate into significant yield, cost and reliability risk. To meet these industry needs, Corning draws on decades of display glass expertise to address semiconductor needs, leveraging the same manufacturing rigor and discipline that has enabled exceptionally flat, dimensionally controlled glass at scale.

This talk connects the AI infrastructure inflection to the material and manufacturing requirements emerging across advanced packaging. It explores why glass-based platforms are the solution to warpage and integration challenges while supporting scalable manufacturing.

Computational Perception: Natural Human-AI Interface Technologies

Human perception is inherently computational, shaped by biological sensing, neural processing, and multisensory integration. As artificial intelligence increasingly moves from screens into the physical world, the next generation of human-AI interfaces must be grounded in a deep understanding of how humans see, hear, and interact with their environments. This keynote introduces computational perception as a unifying framework for designing natural, intuitive, and continuously available human-AI interface technologies.

The talk will trace progress in visual intelligence, from depth sensing and real-time scene understanding to embodied perception systems, drawing on advances in computer vision and spatial sensing that enable machines to perceive and reason about the three-dimensional world. It will then explore the parallel evolution of intelligent ear-worn computing, nearly invisible, AI-powered hearing devices that enhance speech in complex acoustic environments while functioning as always-on personal assistants through low-power, on-device neural processing.

Building on principles of multisensory perception, the keynote will highlight how biologically inspired models inform the fusion of vision, audition, motion, and context into coherent perceptual representations. Finally, the discussion will look ahead to emerging display and interface technologies, including augmented reality glasses and spatial audio systems, where perceptual intelligence, advanced displays, and wearable form factors converge. Together, these developments point toward a future in which computation seamlessly augments human perception, transforming displays and wearables into adaptive extensions of human senses.
