Get ready to see the future of augmented reality with the next generation of AR glasses. Dispelix and Avegant have teamed up to create an advanced optical solution for augmented reality viewing. These waveguides have been instrumental in bringing Magic Leap, Microsoft HoloLens, and other AR devices to the consumer market.
Avegant , makers of Glyph personal media HMD, are turning their attention to the AR space with what they say is a newly developed light field display for augmented reality which can display multiple objects at different focal planes simultaneously. Avegant Light Field design mockup.
Avegant, the AR display company known for its Glyph head-mounted display , announced that the company has successfully closed a $12M Series AA financing, which will allow them to further develop their light field technologies and “high resolution, low latency, and high brightness” retinal displays.

Charting a Path to Viable Consumer AR Glasses, Part IV. W elcome back to our series on the path to viable consumer AR. Over four parts, we’ll explore the biggest barriers and potential solutions to making consumer-grade Augmented Reality (AR) glasses that people will actually wear. Many in the industry are betting so.
Waveguides are one approach to AR displays that involve redirecting light onto a lens, kind of like a micro version of a projector and screen. In fact, the last time that Dispelix talked to ARPost it was to announce a partnership with light engine manufacturer Avegant. The two new Dispelix partnerships are ColorChip and Maradin.
Edward Tang is the co-founder and CEO of Avegant, a company building next-generation display technologies for augmented reality experiences. Prior to Avegant, Ed spent nearly 15 years working in microfabrication and MEMs technologies, including 5 years focused on applying MEMs to brain-control interfaces.
The panel featured Karl Guttag from KGOnTech, Adi Robertson from the Verve, Jeri Ellsworth from Tilt Five, and Ed Tang from Avegant.

It doesn’t burn me, because it’s a computer image displayed through a new kind of headset prototype built by Avegant, a Silicon Valley-based startup. Avegant calls it “light field.” A new kind of screen could help computer glasses replace the smartphone In my hand, mere inches away from my face, I’m holding a tiny elephant.
But with Dispelix already producing a printed surface relief waveguide, and with Avegant more recently demonstrating a light-field display (using an even more vintage beam-splitter technique), Magic Leap may have lost much of its novelty. Holographic Waveguides.
The unique (and formerly Valve developed) retro-reflective-powered CastAR system gave us a glimpse at one of augmented reality’s possible futures; Avegant turned up with their bizarre yet technically impressive personal media player the Glyph ; PrioVR had their new entry-level motion tracking / VR input system to try.
Following the success of the Blade AR glasses, Vuzix has announced the second generation of the glasses. The glasses are designed “primarily for commercial use” and cost some $500 more than the initial model, but technology has come a long way and we look forward to seeing what this edition is capable of.
