项目摘要

TruLife Optics has developed and patented a FLAT holographic optic and waveguide. Wehave made prototypes of this FLAT optic and these have been sold as developer kits to manyof the entrants in the emerging Augmented Reality industry. This component is the last piecein the jigsaw to offer Augmented Reality Systems developers a clear, full colour, highdefinition transparent optic close to the eye. We have received interest in this optic fromaround 40 players in the emerging AR industry and the feedback has been very positive, withmany of these companies (including global consumer companies) looking to use our optic.The main feedback has been however that to be usable for their applications (mainlyAugmented Reality smart glasses and in some cases helmets), the optic must be CURVED notflat and on a CURVED waveguide.The key aim of this application is to provide the funding to enable the modelling, design,development and manufacture of a CURVED hologram optic prototype on a CURVEDwaveguide substrate so that we are able to sell to he majority of AR systems firms.Our aim is to establish TruLife Optics as a world leader in the manufacture of AR systemsoptics and give the UK a position in this emerging industry, currently dominated by overseascompanies.

TruLife Optics 开发了平面全息光学器件和波导并获得了专利。我们已经制作了这种平面光学器件的原型，并已作为开发套件出售给新兴增强现实行业的许多进入者。该组件是拼图中的最后一块，为增强现实系统开发人员提供靠近眼睛的清晰、全彩、高清透明光学器件。我们已经收到了新兴 AR 行业约 40 家参与者对这款光学器件的兴趣，并且反馈非常积极，其中许多公司（包括全球消费公司）都希望使用我们的光学器件。然而，主要的反馈是可用于他们的应用（主要是增强现实智能眼镜，在某些情况下是头盔），光学器件必须是弯曲的而不是平面的，并且位于弯曲的波导上。该应用程序的主要目的是提供资金以实现建模，在弯曲波导基板上设计、开发和制造弯曲全息光学原型，以便我们能够向大多数 AR 系统公司销售。我们的目标是将 TruLife Optics 打造成 AR 系统光学制造领域的世界领先者，并为英国在这一新兴产业中占有一席之地，目前由海外公司主导。
