Holographic Optical Elements (HOE)technology represents a critical pathway for next-generation AR displays,enabling larger screen sizes and more compact form factors compared totraditional spatial optics. Recently, Nikahood has achieved groundbreakingprogress in key technical challenges such as holographic film materials andlarge-area exposure.
Color HOE materials serve as thefoundational component for achieving full-color displays in volume holography.Currently, in the photopolymer (PP) field, while Covestro's Bayfol HX200 seriescolor HOE films have been introduced, no domestic companies have yet achievedmass production of full-color HOE holographic films.
Nikahood' photopolymer R&D team hasnow successfully developed a single-layer full color photopolymer material, which canbe produced in holographic film form. This material surpasses Covestro's Bayfolseries in some core performance parameters, offering a superior displaysolution for HUD holographic films and AR glasses.
Building upon Nikahood' previousachievement in mass-production coating of single-color (green) holographicfilms, this breakthrough in single-layer full color material lays a solidfoundation and provides a reliable pathway for the future mass production offull-color HOE holographic films.
Single-Layer Implementation of Multi-ColorDiffraction Gratings Holds Significant Importance for Full-Color HOE
Compared to traditional multi-layergrating display technologies, achieving red, green, and blue (RGB) gratingswithin a single layer through exposure can significantly minimize crosstalkbetween different gratings. This advancement enables more diverse displaysolutions for applications such as HUD systems and AR glasses.
Regarding the future evolution of smartHUD technology, Nikahood will maintain a long-term focus onmass-production-oriented R&D. The company will continue to explore varioustechnical pathways, including HOE and optical waveguides, to drive innovationin the field.
