What is your relation to the Research Foundation Of The University Of Central Florida. I saw all the patens are owned by them, but are also the researchers there involved in the project? Are there any statements from the other group members on lucyd.
AR looks interesting, but is not so new anymore and it will make the big turnover only because 1000s of companies are working on it. So, would would be the main difference to the competitors making you something unique?
Hi John.
Tekcapital plc (LSE:TEK), has had a working relationship with University of Central Florida for some time. That relationship helped secured exclusive, worldwide license (noone else can do anything with the technology including UCF) to the 13 patents discussed for Lucyd, a porffolio company of Tekcapital.Dr. Jannick Rolland is the lead inventor behind Lucyd patents, and is on board as an advisor. Dr. Rolland has already developed the central optical system that will be utilised by Lucyd and is excited to be on board.
Lucyd is very different from existing AR solutions because our tech is truly next-generation. Lucyd’s 13 AR patents were developed over a decade of well-funded research at the College of Optics and Photonics at UCF. Lucyd patents enable thin microdisplays for a richly textured, dynamically layered HD AR experience, unlike existing smartglasses that use a clunky external display and have grainy AR objects. This tech also enables Lucyd Lens to be the first smartglass that can be fitted with prescription lenses, and looks like a normal pair of glasses. Lucyd also has an advanced patent for real-world object detection, allowing its AR interface to smoothly intermingle digital content with the real world. Other notable Lucyd firsts are a dynamically adapting user interface that automatically adjusts to the task at hand, built in bone-conduction speakers, light leakage prevention and a 120° enhanced field of view over 3X larger than existing AR displays.
In our opinion, it doesn’t matter if someone else makes smartglasses—there are already several current on the market. But their user base is limited to the ultra-geeky. We strongly believe Lucyd Lens will be the first smartglass that works for everyone.
It is highly unlikely that a pair of smartglasses will come out with all of the features our technology addresses. There might be some improvement, but our technology really makes it much more mass market ready. PLus blockchain will enable much faster and efficient content development for the smartglasses.
Its entirely normal to be skeptical, but if things were that binary we would have no successful startups
Good summary of technology here:
