The microdisplay, reinvented.
From powering pixels to laser projection.
Engineered for scale, reliability, clarity, and affordability.
Numunon replaces millions of powered pixels with a single micro-mirror and three RGB lasers that project light directly, resulting in higher efficiency and lifespan.
How it works:
Lasers project the light
Three RGB lasers generate pure color
MEMS mirror steers it
Millions of light dots at >120Hz.
The image is formed
Brighter, sharper and higher color brilliance
Traditional microdisplays
Emitting light
Uses millions of microscopic light elements called “pixels”
Every pixel must be continuously driven to make an image
More brightness = more power, more heat, and reduced lifespan
Numunon microdisplays
Laser projection
Uses laser beams steered by microscopic mirrors
Light is projected only where it’s needed
Produces less heat, lasts longer, and consumes less power

The manufacturing difference:
Built to scale
-
microOLED is a fragile, yield-sensitive technology stack. It depends on oxygen/moisture-sensitive organic films that require stringent encapsulation and ultra-clean manufacturing. At the brightness levels XR needs, thermal and aging constraints tighten quickly, and scaling high-PPI production is expensive because yield and defect sensitivity dominate cost. Supply is concentrated in a small number of overseas fabs, making capacity and lead times hard for OEMs to control.

MEMS is “mechanical”, built from silicon using trusted processes. These are the same used for microchips for phones, cars, and medical devices. These factories already exist throughout the United States.
Existing facilities support the processes required by our technology. High yields, low cost, made with equipment and expertise America already leads in.
