Liu Yi from Hongshi Intelligence presents the company's Micro-LED microdisplay chips and optical solutions for the AR glasses market. Hongshi offers both monochrome green and full-color RGB displays, with the color version utilizing a three-panel approach where individual red, green, and blue Micro-LED displays are combined through a prism to form a compact light engine, referred to as an RGB cube.

HDMI® Technology is the foundation for the worldwide ecosystem of HDMI-connected devices; integrated with displays, set-top boxes, laptops, audio video receivers and other product types. Because of this global usage, manufacturers, resellers, integrators and consumers must be assured that their HDMI® products work seamlessly together and deliver the best possible performance by sourcing products from licensed HDMI Adopters or authorized resellers. For HDMI Cables, consumers can look for the official HDMI® Cable Certification Labels on packaging. Innovation continues with the latest HDMI 2.2 Specification that supports higher 96Gbps bandwidth and next-gen HDMI Fixed Rate Link technology to provide optimal audio and video for a wide range of device applications. Higher resolutions and refresh rates are supported, including up to 12K@120 and 16K@60. Additionally, more high-quality options are supported, including uncompressed full chroma formats such as 8K@60/4:4:4 and 4K@240/4:4:4 at 10-bit and 12-bit color.

The full-color VGA (640x480) resolution display achieves a brightness of two million nits for white light and can produce millions of colors. This technology is aimed at enabling lightweight, high-brightness AR glasses. The company is already shipping samples to customers who are designing consumer products, with mass production orders anticipated to begin in the near future. The development has progressed through DVT and PVT stages, indicating readiness for market entry.
Hongshi's manufacturing process incorporates hybrid bonding technology to bond the LED wafer to the CMOS backplane. This bonding technique is established in other semiconductor fields, such as CMOS image sensors and High Bandwidth Memory (HBM), and is applied here for Micro-LED microdisplay fabrication. This approach is crucial for achieving the necessary pixel density and performance for near-eye displays.
A demonstration of binocular AR glasses with a monochrome green display was shown, featuring two separate light engines and an integrated camera. The design is lightweight, and a full-color version is expected to be only slightly heavier, by approximately 10 grams. The monochrome glasses are already available in the Chinese market, with a specific version developed for Japan.
The discussion highlights the rapid maturation of the Micro-LED ecosystem for AR applications. With mass production imminent, consumer AR glasses featuring full-color, high-brightness Micro-LED displays from Hongshi's partners are expected to reach the market soon, potentially driving new applications in personal AI assistants and other interactive experiences.
