Kopin Teams With CE Producer on AR, VR LED Microdisplays

Kopin signed a multiyear agreement with a top Japanese electronics company to develop “superbright” full-color LED microdisplays on silicon for augmented- and virtual-reality headsets, it said Thursday. Kopin didn’t name the partner that produces “advanced consumer products.” Kopin will contribute proprietary backplane silicon wafers and the partner will develop bonding and color conversion processes, it said. They expect to be able to demo prototypes within two years,
