We are pleased to announce and invite you to one of our weekly online zoom events.
Disruptive Optics and Sensing for the Next Generation of XR Glasses
AlphaLum is pioneering a new class of optical and sensing modules that push the boundaries of what’s possible in combiner technology and spatial computing. Building on breakthroughs originally developed within a corporate incubator, our team has engineered ultra-compact, high-performance elements tailored to the stringent requirements of wearable XR systems.
This talk will introduce the core principles behind AlphaLum’s technology platform, highlight key optical innovations, and outline how these enable radically improved form factors and user experiences in augmented and mixed reality devices.
