Luna: illuminating LCoS into the future of augmented reality

Whitepaper | November 2026

Read our latest whitepaper

Lasers are bright and efficient, but an LCoS panel needs uniform area illumination. Getting there usually means a stack of discrete optics that adds size, cost and alignment steps.Luna integrates RGB lasers, a photonic integrated circuit and a metasurface into one compact illumination engine, from 0.030 cc. Simulations show a 90%-uniform RGB field at 17 lm/W.The paper covers the PIC building blocks, the metasurface design, the Luna generations and what comes next.
