讲师简介 / Speaker Bio Bernard has been involved in Optics and Photonics for the past 25 years as an author, instructor, associate professor, engineer, and hardware development manager in academia, start-ups and multinational corporations. He successively worked on product developments in the fields of optical computing, optical telecom, optical data storage, optical anti-counterfeiting, industrial optical sensors and more recently in immersive displays for augmented and mixed reality headsets. He was the 2023 President of the International Society for Optics and Photonics (SPIE) and the chair of various SPIE conferences including SPIE AR/VR/MR. Bernard held engineering and management positions at Google [X] Labs since 2011 (Google Glass) and Microsoft since 2016 (HoloLens). He is since 2022 the Director for XR engineering at Google in Mountain View, CA. 摘要 / Abstract The demise of LCoS for AR headsets has been told numerous times over the past decade, only to be proven wrong over and over by successive smart glass products integrating ever evolving LCoS features to reduce power, increase efficiency and contrast. The transition to RGB microLED panels will eventually happen, but at a much slower pace than expected by analysts, with successive stepping stones using the best features of both display technologies. |
