Project

PHABULOµS aims to set up a European pilot line for the manufacturing of free-form micro-optical components by UV replication technologies (wafer-scale, roll-to-plate R2P, and roll-to-roll R2R)with a clear roadmap for  high volume production at competitive cost.

Objective

PHABULOµS objective is to accelerate the validation of technologies & processes (with selected use cases), to validate the services of the pilot line (with pilot cases) and eventually establish a unique legal entity as one-stop shop.

Use cases

Micro Displays for Augmented Reality

MICROOLED

A new dimension to consumer’s experience by providing the world’s highest pixel density AMOLED microdisplays.

The technology provides brightness enhancement and control of angular light emission, e.g. in see-through optical systems for wearable Augmented Reality (AR).
