Abstract

Extended reality (XR) technologies that enhance and replace our view of the world are vividly moving towards mainstream as supporting professional and consumer applications approach commerciality. Majority of devices that are enabling XR content heavily rely on optics. However, making optics good enough to meet demanding user expectations remains difficult in terms of optical quality, cost, throughput and even in a sustainable point of view. Additive manufacturing processes are readily adopted in XR optics helping close the difficulty gap. This presentation covers new additive processed materials for XR devices related optics with their possibilities and challenges.
