Join our online industry meeting dedicated to the rapidly evolving field of Extended Reality (XR), a domain poised to transform everyday life and societal interactions. This event offers a prime opportunity for companies in photonics and optics to tap into expansive business prospects. As XR technology broadens into more applications, the demand for innovative solutions, particularly in headset design, is soaring. Key development areas include reducing headset weight and cost while improving visual metrics such as field of view, frame rate, and latency. This meeting will be especially valuable for companies specializing in optics and photonics, focusing on the critical components that are driving the next generation of XR technology. We will delve into advancements in near-eye displays, waveguides, eye-tracking, and sensing systems. Participants will gain insights into specific needs and emerging trends within the XR industry, positioning themselves at the forefront of this dynamic field.
