Single Chip LCOS panel for smart glasses
Omnivision has developed a low-power, small form factor liquid crystal on silicon (LCOS) panel for AR smart glasses.
The OP03050 developed by Omnivision integrates the LCOS array, driving circuit, framebuffer and interface in a single chip. This provides a high-resolution display for real-time video conferencing and streaming for the replacement for mobile phones.
“Smart eyewear is the next mobile phone accessory consumers want, especially as they become more fashionable, smaller and lightweight,” said Devang Patel, marketing director for the IoT and emerging segment at Omnivision.
“The high pixel pitch of the OP03050 results in better image quality and a more immersive viewing experience for the user. In fact, while the consumer market is a driving force behind the growing demand for smart glasses, the more immersive experience makes them useful for B2B applications as well, such as in the medical, engineering and aerospace fields.”
The OP03050 LCOS panel has a 3.0-micron pixel pitch; it features 1560×1200 display resolution at 120 Hz with low-latency. It comes in a 0.23-inch optical format in a small FPCA package and supports a 4-channel MIPI-DSI interface.
