AUO announced that it plans to hire 2,500 engineers - to work on AMOLED displays, 3D displays and solar panels. AU Optronics is gearing up to start producing 4" to 5" AMOLED panels, aimed toward smartphones. Last week we reported that AUO is joining Taiwan's AMOLED alliance - and will have its initial production capacity secured by ASUS and HTC.
Interestingly exactly 2 years ago on March 11 2010 we reported that AUO is planning to recruit 2,500 engineers to work on OLED, LCD and Solar projects. Hopefully this time AUO is really stepping up its OLED program
