How it works

2D Expansion Reflective Waveguide Technology

Light-beams collimation

Micro-display

Embedded facets expand image & project it to the eye

1
Light enters the waveguide through a coupling prism into the 1st array of mirrors expanding in one dimension.

Reflective Waveguide Technology

Lumus reflective waveguide-based optical engines consist of a micro projector and a reflective waveguide.

The micro projector generates and projects the image into the entrance aperture of our waveguide combiner. The projector itself is comprised of a micro-display (LCoS, OLED, Laser or Micro-LED) that generates the the virtual image and a collimating optics module that collimates the image toward the waveguide’s entrance aperture.

 

The waveguide performs pupil expansion in both

“X” and “Y” dimensions and projects the image towards the user’s eye.

This 1st array of transflective mirrors also diverts light towards the second array, expanding in the second dimension.
