Technology & Products
Key Products
Projection optical engines (LED and laser light sources, tens to thousands of lumens, WVGA to 4K resolution), optical machines for intelligent LED projectors (e.g., HY32GA, F16D), 3D vision optical modules and algorithm solutions, 3D printing DLP solutions, 3D scanning solutions, and virtual retinal display technology.
Technological Advantage
100+ patented optical engine designs reduce OEM development cycle risk; certified partnership with Texas Instruments for DLP technology access; mass-production experience delivers competitive unit economics; vertical integration from sourcing through final module assembly and test.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Reduces time-to-market for OEM partners with proven mass-production optical engines; over 100 patented DLP-based module designs eliminate custom R&D burden; delivers full-spectrum brightness and resolution options (tens-to-thousands lumens, WVGA-to-4K) from single supplier, enabling faster product iteration and lower design risk.
How They Differentiate
Laser + LED light source offering within single optical engine family; breadth of resolution options (WVGA to 4K) and brightness levels across product line; integrated design-for-manufacturability approach yielding high-volume production parity; focus on 3D printing and scanning applications vs. pure projection competitors.
