Full-color single-waveguide near-eye displays
for AR glasses and MR headsets
Co-Founder, CEO Antti Sunnari
World's thinnest
high performance
full-color displays
for near-eye
augmented reality.
Everyone’s daydream
§ Eyeglasses form factor
§ Unlimited battery life
§ 120-degree FOV
§ Sensor fusion
Different use cases – different display concepts

§ Cost
§ Form factor
§ Image quality
§ Volume compatibility
A single layer – why?
Cost – wafer utilization and yield
66% 76% 87%
*Assuming 98% production yield in each process step for one layer
Form factor – display thickness
3.1mm 2.2 mm 1.3 mm
*Waveguide 800μm, protective glass 400μm, air gap 100μm
Volume compatibility – less is more
0.33M 0.5M 1M
*Assuming 1M annual waveguide production capacity and 100% yield
Image quality – MTF challenge

Waveguide design
§ Proprietary software
§ Parallel computing
§ 40 000 cores

Diffractive waveguide displays are product-ready
§ Display form factor enables appealing
consumer products
§ Image quality enables professional and
consumer use
§ Diffractive waveguide displays can be
manufactures for mass market products
§ To open the market, ultra-small high
performance projectors are needed
