Spatial Light Modulator Market size was over USD 9.31 billion in 2024 and is projected to cross USD 63.89 billion by the end of 2037, witnessing more than 15.7% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of spatial light modulator is estimated at USD 10.49 billion. This growth of the market is influenced by a growing number of active gamers. Around 4 billion people play video games regularly worldwide. That number has increased by about 2 billion in just seven years. These gamers are demanding high resolutions displays in gaming devices which could be satisfied with the usage of spatial light modulators.
Further, to increase the use of spatial light modulators in high-speed applications, such as one-panel color sequential projection, many major players are releasing new spatial light modulator products with higher pixel resolution. These include important features such as high image frame rate, short response time, and small interpixel gap.
