SCIVAX, Shin-Etsu Develop Amtelus Light Source for AR/VR Sensors
The mass manufacturing process for Amtelus, a light source device for 3D sensors, was developed by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co. Ltd. and SCIVAX Corporation. Since its size fits into AR glasses and its light emission facilitates 3D sensing, it is useful for businesses involved in augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR).
Amtelus can also be used by smartphone manufacturers for applications like gesture control and facial recognition because of its size and price. Its sensor performance and integration can be advantageous to the automobile sector, particularly those working on driverless vehicles or advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS). Because of its performance and size, Amtelus can also be used by consumer electronics makers, such as those that make wearables and smartwatches, as well as the healthcare and life sciences industries that deal with critical sensors or medical devices.
According to the company, it has created a high-hardness material that is able to be diced and has the required sealing and optical qualities to safeguard the gadget. Amtelus, the smallest light source device that combines the features of Platanus, was made by SCIVAX using this material. The gadget is 10 times smaller than earlier generations, has a mounting surface of 1 mm² or less, and has a thickness that has been cut in half or more.
Amtelus has a number of important features. First of all, its small size helps minimize the amount of space required for the light-emitting component, which makes it perfect for gadgets like smartphones, AR glasses, and other tiny devices. Additionally, you can increase the precision of your sensing by combining many Amtelus units.
