Vision beyond limits.
A new category in microdisplay technology, combining the precision of MEMS, the efficiency of lasers, and the scalability of semiconductors.
Powering XR’s future
Numunon built the Infinite Light Engine (ILE), the technology that replaces all existing microdisplays (microOLED, LCOS, DLP, and microLED). It is efficient, scalable, and made in the United States.
What’s holding
XR back
-
Fifteen years of investment proved one thing: the microdisplay is the barrier.
Apple, Meta, Microsoft, and Magic Leap spent more than 150 billion dollars advancing XR optics, compute, and tracking. Each program stalled at the same point: the microdisplay stack. The market demand is real. The hardware bottleneck is universal.
-
Every legacy microdisplay trades brightness, efficiency, or scale.
MicroOLED panels overheat and degrade when driven bright enough for daylight.
LCoS loses up to 90 percent of light through filters and polarizers.
Micro-DLP cannot shrink to the micron-level pixel pitches XR requires. All three rely on millions of powered pixels that act like heaters. The more resolution you add, the more heat, cost, and yield loss you create.
-
Low yield. Offshore dependence. No path to scale.
Microdisplay fabrication never achieved semiconductor-grade reliability. Yields collapse below 60 percent as pixel density increases, while organic and crystal layers fail under heat and humidity stress. More than 95 percent of advanced microdisplay capacity sits in East Asia, creating cost, risk, and supply constraints that OEMs cannot control.
-
Every pixel draws power. Every headset fights its own heat.
MicroOLED and LCoS engines consume 1 to 2 watts per eye. Higher brightness demands more current, generating heat that shortens lifetime and drains batteries within hours. The result is heavy optics, external battery packs, and thermal limits that no incremental optimization can escape.
Stop emitting.
Start projecting.
ILE replaces millions of powered pixels with three RGB lasers and a MEMS mirror that projects light directly. Light no longer comes from the pixel, it’s created and shaped in motion. The result is brighter, cooler, sharper, and ready for scale.
Design to scale
Built on proven MEMS processes with semiconductor-level yield.
Wider color gamut
Pure RGB lasers achieve over 90% of the CIE 1931 color space.
Infinite Scalability
Resolution and brightness scale without heat or yield loss.
Daylight visibility
Laser projection cuts through optical loss for
full outdoor brightness.
Proven engineering. American production.
ILE is built on mature MEMS fabrication used in billions of sensors every year with 99% yield. 100% Made in USA.
We built it to scale from day one.
Built to fit.
Designed to replace.
A new display engine that keeps the same footprint while unlocking greater efficiency, brightness, affordability, and scale.
Familiar Geometry
Fits current module dimensions and alignment tolerances.
Optical Compatibility
Works with standard waveguides, lenses, and combiners.
Scalable Form Factor
Compact footprint supports multiple display sizes and configurations.
