Light Field Lab, Inc.
Light Field Lab is a San Jose deep-tech company building SolidLight, a holographic display platform that projects three-dimensional objects into open space with no glasses, headsets, or eyewear required. Founded in 2017 by three veterans of the light-field camera company Lytro, it assembles self-emissive, bezel-less panels into modular video walls dense enough - roughly 10 billion pixels per square meter - to form images the eye reads as physically real. Backed by $85M including a $50M Series B with Bill Gates' Gates Frontier, Corning, LG, NCSOFT, and Samsung, and named to TIME's Best Inventions of 2022, the company is now productizing SolidLight for enterprise, entertainment, and public-display markets.
Swave Photonics
Swave Photonics is a Belgium-based fabless semiconductor company building the world's first true holographic display chip. Spun out of imec and Vrije Universiteit Brussel in 2022, Swave's Holographic eXtended Reality (HXR) platform uses a CMOS spatial light modulator with sub-300nm 'Diffraction Pixels' to sculpt light into natural 3D images - aiming to replace the waveguides and varifocal lenses in AR glasses, heads-up displays and glasses-free 3D walls with a single scalable chip.
