Holography for Augmented Reality and Smart Glasses

Dr. Seth Coe-Sullivan

Presentation Abstract

Volumetric holographic components are a viable alternative to surface relief gratings for augmented reality and smart glass optical combiners. High efficiency single layer RGB performance, combined with roll-to-roll manufacturing, are key technology advantages that enable consumer products with best-in-class form factor, quality and price.
