FlexEnable’s tunable liquid crystal lenses, built on optically ideal plastic (TAC) substrates, can actively adjust focus, bringing perceived and actual image depth together consistently, by compensating for focal differences between the virtual and the real.
At less than 100 microns thick and weighing a fraction of a gram, our lenses can be stacked for increased focal power or combined with other flexible liquid crystal cells to provide additional features such as ambient dimming.
This breakthrough technology can be biaxially formed around existing optical components, further minimising product volume and improving optical performance for the user compared to planar glass optical components.
Switchable reading glasses
FlexEnbale’s tunable lenses can be integrated into AI / smart glasses to enable switchable reading glasses. In that way, users can switch between reading mode and normal prescription lens (or no prescription) mode. This functionality could significantly improve users’ comfort by removing the need to manage multiple pairs of glasses or swapping between AI glasses and reading glasses.
