Abstract

Augmented reality (AR) technologies that enable the overlay of digital information on the real world are widely anticipated to be the next wave of computing platforms. For a truly immersive AR experience, the AR glasses should be lightweight, comfortable, stylish, socially acceptable, and efficient that can be worn all day. Traditional optical devices are very bulky and are not suitable for head mounted displays (HMDs) for AR glasses. Hence, there is an increasing interest in developing nano-optics based devices that are significantly smaller and lighter than the conventional devices. Materials innovation is one of the key pillars that could enable the fabrication of such lightweight devices. In this talk, the impact of new materials like highly transparent, high refractive index (HRI) substrates, litho and patterning materials for device fabrication and permanent optical materials to develop all-day wearable AR glasses will be discussed.
