Kopin Corporation announced a new funding award from the U.S. Army to develop and produce a cutting-edge see-through extended reality (XR) heads-up display (HUD). These innovative XR HUD modules aim to deliver visually comfortable performance for battlefield situational awareness. Kopin’s off-the-visor (OTV) approach offers brighter, more energy-efficient display light transmission while ensuring visual comfort, addressing critical challenges such as light security, power consumption, eye strain, and latency. The first wave of these advanced prototypes is ready for demonstration. These prototypes offer clear upgrade paths for next-gen microdisplays like Kopin’s Color MicroLED, AI-enabled NeuralDisplay™, and modular HUDs such as DayVAS™ and DarkWAVE™. The funding underscores the U.S. Army’s dedication to harnessing cutting-edge technology to safeguard its troops.
