Geometric (Reflective) waveguides and MicroLEDs – the perfect marriage

26 May, 2025

Geometric/reflective waveguides perform much better with MicroLED-based projectors than diffractive alternatives. 

Our CTO, Dr. Yochay Danziger, recently presented at MicroLED Connect in March, making a compelling, well-received case for why reflective (geometric) waveguides-the core of Lumus technology-are dramatically more efficient and much brighter than any diffractive waveguide on the market when paired with MicroLED-based projectors.
Unlike diffractive waveguides, which are currently used in many AR systems, reflective waveguides offer significantly higher optical efficiency, greater brightness, and superior image clarity—all critical factors for delivering immersive, real-world AR experiences. Dr. Danziger demonstrated how Lumus’ proprietary geometric waveguide technology can harness the intense luminance and compact form factor of MicroLED projectors far more effectively than traditional diffractive designs.

Dr. Danziger explained how our proprietary architecture, featuring dual sets of transflexive mirrors, enables two-dimensional image expansion and delivers industry-leading luminance efficiency, color fidelity, and true outdoor visibility-especially when paired with MicroLED-based micro-projectors.
