TruLife Optics' proposal to develop a prototype curved holographic wave-guided optic for use on glasses or other curved surfaces for sale to augmented reality systems developers

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.
