According to the report, Luminit LLC (hereinafter referred to as Luminit), a high-tech privately held company specializing in precision optics and holographic smart board laser pointer light shaping diffusers (LSD), released a new light on August 3, 2018. Light Shaping Micro Optics for use in applications such as lidar, laser pointer, time-of-flight (ToF), face recognition (Facial ID), and eye/head tracking. Accordingly, master direct writing technology and gray lithography, advanced microscope and other tools will be together in the mass production level, providing pixel-by-pixel design and direct write capability for all micro-optical component solutions.
Suleyman Turgut, vice president of sales and marketing at Luminit, said: "Lidar, ToF, face recognition and similar advanced technologies are currently growing areas. Luminit will continue to develop high performance optics to meet the market demand of the laser pointer. With light-shaping micro-optics, we can design, control, copy, and simulate in a short period of time, which can significantly reduce the time-to-market of optical components and simplify the supply chain, so customers can benefit from it."
Luminit's new grayscale lithography process enables the construction of advanced refractions (microlenses, prisms, Fresnel lenses, etc.) and diffractive optical components (CGH, phase plates) down to 1 micron feature size. Light output includes flat top intensity distribution, structured light source (random point generator, pattern generator), and custom illumination shapes (square, rectangular, trademark). Luminit is currently capable of producing a wide range of precision digitally simulated micro-optics that can then be replicated on a variety of plastic and glass substrates depending on thickness, temperature and volume requirements.
