Corning and WaveOptics Supply Agreement for Augmented Reality Optics
Corning Incorporated, a supplier of high refractive index glass for eyewear, and WaveOptics, a designer and manufacturer of diffractive waveguides, have entered into a long-term supply agreement for augmented reality (AR) optics.
Corning will provide ultra-flat, high-index glass wafers for WaveOptics’ waveguides, the key optical component in AR wearable devices. WaveOptics’ specialized nano-structures will be imprinted on the glass wafers and made into waveguides using a well-defined manufacturing process.
As part of the agreement, Corning will also provide its world-class materials science expertise to support WaveOptics’ continued advancements in waveguide manufacturing.
