Methodology

How the estimates were built: data sources, modelling approach and validation steps.

Research approach

A market size is a claim about the world, and a claim is only as good as the route to it. Every study is built upward from units and prices — what is actually produced, sold or performed, at what it actually changes hands for — rather than from a headline figure divided downwards. Disclosed company revenue is then used to check that build, not to produce it.

The four stages

The same sequence runs behind every published study, whatever the industry. The order matters as much as the steps: the segment axes are fixed before any number is collected, so the model is never reshaped to fit whatever data happens to turn up.

What the build rests on, and what checks it

The two are not interchangeable. The left column produces the number; the right column tests it. When the check disagrees with the build, the answer is to find which bottom-up assumption is wrong — a unit count, a price, a take-up rate — not to split the difference between them.

The bottom-up build rests on
  • Volume actually transacted — units produced, installed, dispensed or procedures performed, counted at the level each is genuinely recorded
  • Realised pricing by tier and channel, rather than one blended average applied across the whole market
  • Take-up and frequency: how much of the addressable base buys, and how often it repeats
The build is checked against
  • Disclosed revenue of the companies serving the market, where filings separate it far enough to be usable
  • Buyer-side spending totals — capital budgets, procurement lines, or the output of the end market the product is bought against
  • Trade and customs flows, where the product crosses borders in a separately recorded form

Data sources

Published data establishes what happened. Only the people transacting in a market can say why, and what is about to change — so the two are collected separately and weighted differently.

Primary — who is interviewed
  • Commercial and product leadership at the companies that supply the market
  • Procurement and specification leads at the organisations that buy it
  • Distributors, integrators and channel partners, where the market is served indirectly
  • Regulatory and standards specialists, where approval governs what can be sold at all
Secondary — what is read
  • Company filings, annual reports and investor disclosure
  • Government statistics, customs records and regulatory registers
  • Trade association output and standards-body publications
  • Technical and peer-reviewed literature, where the market rests on a clinical or engineering claim
Primary research design, this report

Interviews were directed at product management and procurement leads inside television, smartphone, and camera manufacturers who set HDR feature attach rates by price tier, along with panel and sensor supply executives who confirmed production allocation between HDR and standard dynamic range lines. Purchasing and integration managers at security equipment distributors and industrial machine-vision integrators were included to capture how HDR sensors are specified into surveillance and inspection systems. Sampling weighted East Asia, where panel and sensor manufacturing is concentrated, alongside North America and Europe, where consumer purchasing and content licensing decisions are made, to reflect both the supply and demand sides of adoption.

Secondary sources, this report

Desk research drew on published HDR format licensing disclosures from the standards bodies administering HDR10+ and Dolby Vision certification, customs and trade classification data for camera modules and display panels under relevant HS codes, and regulatory filings from consumer electronics manufacturers listed in South Korea, Japan, and the United States. Broadcast-industry HDR adoption benchmarks published by television standards organizations informed the Hybrid Log-Gamma estimates, and semiconductor industry association shipment data for CMOS image sensors supported the capturing-device build. Import and export registers for finished televisions and cameras cross-checked regional shipment volumes against reported production.

Desk research runs across proprietary research databases including Factiva, OneSource and Hoovers alongside the public sources above. Modelling and statistical validation are run in SAS and SPSS.

Forecasting

The forecast is not a growth rate applied to a base year. It is built from the drivers that are expected to change, each one stated so a reader can disagree with it.

Forecast approach, this report

The forecast is built from expected HDR attach-rate curves by device category, projecting how quickly HDR support moves from premium to mid-tier and entry-level price bands in televisions, smartphones, and cameras, alongside the pace at which security and industrial imaging systems specify HDR sensors as standard rather than optional. Format-specific assumptions track licensing terms for HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, since royalty structures influence how quickly device makers add support. Pricing is assumed to decline gradually as component costs fall, offsetting some unit growth in revenue terms. The forecast holds if HDR adoption continues moving down-market at a broadly similar pace to prior premium-display features such as 4K resolution.

Triangulation and validation

No figure enters a report on the strength of one source. Where the two sizing routes disagree the difference is not averaged away — the assumption causing it is isolated, tested against a third independent measure, and either corrected or carried forward as a stated limitation. Historical years are back-tested against the growth actually recorded before any forecast is allowed to run forward from them.

Validation, this report

Historical shipment and revenue estimates for 2020 through 2024 were back-tested against recorded display panel and camera sensor production growth to confirm the bottom-up build tracked actual manufacturing output. Segment share shifts, particularly the growing share attributed to Dolby Vision and to security and monitoring applications, were reviewed against panel and sensor allocation data to confirm the direction of movement, not simply assumed. Sensitivities were tested on attach-rate timing, checking how a one to two year delay in HDR moving into mid-tier device price bands would affect the segment-level forecast without changing the overall market direction.

Confidence and limitations

Where an estimate is firm and where it is not is stated rather than left to be inferred from the precision of the number.

Confidence framing, this report

The estimate is strongest for consumer television and smartphone HDR adoption, where device shipment data and format licensing disclosures are relatively transparent and regularly reported. It is weaker for security and monitoring and for industrial machine-vision applications, where HDR sensor specification is often bundled into broader equipment purchases and not separately disclosed, and for the Hybrid Log-Gamma segment, where broadcast adoption data is thinner outside major markets. A structural risk to the estimate is faster-than-expected consolidation around a single HDR format, which would shift segment shares faster than current licensing and shipment trends suggest.
