6.2 Million 3D TVs Expected to be Sold Globally in 2010
3D TV market is expected to represent 3% of all TV market
with 6.2M units in 2010 and among these, 5M units are
expected to be 3D LCD TV and 1.2M units for PDP TV,

growing to 33M units in 2012 and 83M units by 2014 to
represent 31% of all TV market.
In terms of device type, 3D LCD TV market is expected to reach 5.1M units in 2010 to represent 81% of total 3D TV market and is expected to be mainly applied to premium products utilizing Full HD and 240Hz in large-sized TVs over 40" in size. By 2014, 3D LCD TV market size would reach about 70M units to represent 28% of all LCD TV market.
