The global multi-function display market size reached USD 19.3 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, the publisher expects the market to reach USD 38.1 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 7.43% during 2025-2033. Continual technological advancements in system efficiency and automation, an increase in the number of ground control stations, and the rising demand for aircrafts with superior features, represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Multi-function displays (MFDs) are small devices with screens that usually consist of a Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) or a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and can display information to the user by means of various soft keys surrounding the display. Multi-function displays allow a driver to view several parameters on the dashboard at the same time, which helps in enhancing the overall handling of the vehicle. In addition to receiving video inputs directly from video sensors, such as forward looking infrared (FLIR) sensor, cameras, radar, and weapons, and they can also communicate with external systems via signals. Additionally, MFD also provides a high-resolution display and real-time computing solution for rugged military applications requiring high performance computing. MFDs use various technologies, such as LEDs, AMLCDs, and Synthetic Vision systems, with additional features like anti-reflectivity, and dual-mode backlight providing sunlight readability. These displays are commonly used in cars in the driver's direct line of sight as well as on multi-function map displays in glass cockpits on aircraft.
