Automotive HUD

Opportunity: Drivers love the HUD

Problems:

Current (FPD) product is too big & too expensive

Performance (contrast) is limited

Windshield alignment is a huge headache

Solution:

MVIS laser HUD is 60% smaller, improved contrast

MicroHUD image can be easily shaped with software for alignment

Consumer Electronics

Integrated Display Module

Need desktop quality! (HD)

6-8X performance vs. current solutions

$40 Target OEM price

FPD’s become cost prohibitive!

Applications Digital cameras Gaming / DVD Mobile devices
