𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗪𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗲𝘀 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗔𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝘀... ... And How HIDO Solves Them   The AR industry has long pursued the dream of lightweight, stylish smartglasses. Yet, waveguides – the most commonly used optical technology – continue to face fundamental limitations: • Field of View vs. Form Factor – A wider field of view means bulkier glasses. A sleeker design reduces the FOV. A compromise is inevitable. • Low Optical Efficiency – Waveguides lose a significant amount of light during transmission, which increases power consumption and shortens battery life. • Complex & Expensive Manufacturing – Producing high-quality waveguides is costly, making mass adoption challenging. Enter HIDO – our groundbreaking, non-projection-based approach that removes these limitations: • Wide field of view without bulky frames • Higher optical efficiency for longer battery life • Scalable, cost-effective manufacturing 𝗦𝗼, 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗛𝗜𝗗𝗢 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸?  After years of research and development, HIDO introduces a technology that uses a transparent display combined with a holographic layer, both embedded directly into the lens. This allows users to see virtual images projected right in front of their eyes, seamlessly blending the digital and real worlds. Unlike traditional AR systems, HIDO’s design provides unmatched flexibility, enabling lenses to be made in any shape. It also allows for the field of view to be scaled to any size, ensuring a customized experience based on user needs—whether for a compact view or a larger, more immersive one. HIDO will shift the augmented reality paradigm, addressing key issues like limited FOV, low optical efficiency, and costly manufacturing, all while enabling sleek, lightweight eyewear.   We're proud to lead the next generation of AR with technology that is designed for real-world applications. https://lnkd.in/d-yPi6Zn #LusoVu #HIDO #AR #XR

How are HIDO lenses different? Let’s dive in!   At LusoVU, innovation is at the core of what we do, and our HIDO lenses stand beyond in the world of augmented reality.  Unlike other solutions that rely on opaque displays positioned at the top or side of the glasses and waveguides to direct light to your eyes, HIDO adopts a game-changing approach: The display is directly in front of your eyes and it’s divided into tiny, invisible micro-displays.   What turns this into an extraordinary optical technology? We’ve developed a holographic layer that replaces the bulky optics which have long hindered widespread adoption of AR glasses. Instead, our lenses feature a thin, transparent layer that: - Enlarges images to any size and shape - Ensures seamless integration with prescription optics - Allows for comfortable use during long periods of time.   HIDO lenses don’t just augment your reality—they redefine how AR should look and feel. #LusoVU #HIDO

This past Tuesday, our CEO, Ivo Yves Vieira, took the stage at the Start-Up Pitch for NATO event in Lisbon to present LusoVu’s revolutionary HIDO AR smartglasses. The event brought together top innovators and leaders from NATO DIANA (Defence Innovation Accelerator for the North Atlantic) and the NATO Innovation Fund (NIF). It provided an incredible opportunity to showcase our cutting-edge technology and explore how HIDO’s dual-use applications—both for civilian and military purposes—are set to transform how we interact with reality. Meeting so many like-minded innovators and key decision-makers was an enriching experience, opening doors to potential collaborations and exciting future projects. #LusoVu #NATO #NATODIANA #NATOInnovationFund #HIDO #AR #XR
