SubsidieMeestersNext Generation Augmented Reality technology to improve car safety and driving experience
EyeLights aims to enhance driving safety by developing a compact AR Head Up Display that projects vital information up to 50m ahead, addressing the industry's performance and safety needs.
Projectdetails
Problem
Every 40 seconds, 1 driver is killed due to smartphone use while driving. Around the world, distracted driving leads to the death of 1.4 million drivers and over 750,000 serious injuries per year.
Solution
Augmented Reality (AR) can greatly improve driving safety. Today, AR Head Up Displays (HUDs) are being used in a growing number of cars. However, most AR HUD products do not meet the industrialization and optical performance requirements of the automotive industry, and fail to unlock the safety benefits of AR.
Technology
EyeLights is on a mission to make driving safer and more enjoyable. Our patent-protected technology is based on the optimization of light properties through:
- Polarised light guides
- Diffractive nano materials
The result is a revolutionary virtual screen that can be projected up to 50 meters in front of the driver, with the smallest form factor in the market. This will accelerate the adoption of our technology by the automotive industry and increase driving safety.
