Using MEMS and optics to create a unique solution for present and future applications

poLight has developed the TLens®, tunable focusing lens enabled by specific MEMS structure. In collaboration with STMicrolectronics, the first MOEMS TLens has been put in mass production. It has been adopted in many different products such as mobile cameras and other consumer products, as well as industrial and medical applications. The technology has the potential to be used in automotive devices for which reliability are more demanding. poLight will present its current TLens MEMS structure as well as new product concept like the TWedge® which will be key for emerging applications such as AR-VR.
