Light Blue Optics Demonstrates Latest Miniature Projection Systems and New Use-Cases at SID 08
Light Blue Optics (LBO) today announced it will demonstrate its latest miniature projection
systems at the Society for Information Display, 18-23
May (SID 2008). These highly
efficient, low-cost miniature projection systems are based on LBO´s
proprietary holographic laser projection technology and have
applications across multiple high-volume markets, including consumer
electronics and automotive. The Company will make evaluation units available to key customers and strategic development partners
from June 2008 as part of its fast-paced product development programme.
At SID 08, LBO will demonstrate bright, efficient miniature projection
systems with a range of differentiating features that can be
tailored to suit specific customer applications. The systems deliver
superior image quality with in-built speckle reduction, variable
resolution (WVGA to QVGA) and focus-free operation, enabling multiple
use-cases to be realised by the same device. Due to the unique
properties of holographic laser projection, LBO´s
systems also offer the option of enhanced image brightness for use in
higher ambient lighting conditions.
Light Blue Optics´ CEO, Dr Chris Harris said, "LBO´s
holographic laser projection technology meets our customers´ requirements for bright, efficient miniature projection systems with
superior image quality and focus-free operation. However, there is also
an emerging demand for systems capable of delivering variable resolution
and brightness configurations to enable new and exciting use-cases to be
realised by a single device. At SID, we will demonstrate how the
inherent versatility of LBO´s unique
technology platform meets these additional demands, opening up
high-volume market opportunities and positioning us to become the
world´s leading supplier of miniature projection systems."
