Shipments of 4K Ultra HD television sets are skyrocketing

The market for 4K/Ultra-HD televisions has been slow to develop, but new data shows that the technology seems to finally be gaining momentum. Back during the month of March 2012, when 4K was still a very new format, the total number of UHD TV panel shipments for the month didn’t even exceed the 150,000 mark. However, according to a new report from IHS Technology, precisely two years later that number grew by sevenfold, reaching its highest monthly total yet for March 2014, at 1.1 million shipments.
