VividQ
VividQ is a company in England developing holographic near-eye display algorithms and hardware. It operates in the field of computer-generated holograms, including digital holography.
One of VividQ's demo units used a spatial light modulator driven by a laser.[1]
As of the year 2025, most of VividQ's internal units use LCOS, rather than DMD.[2]
Its displays have a field of view under 80 degrees.
A demo of VividQ's technology was shown using a TI DLP evaluation unit, with a maximum field of view of about 20 degrees. VividQ is doing binary amplitude-mode holograms. This is evident from its use of TI's DMDs, which are binary amplitude-mode components.
Displays[edit]
VividQ used a TI DMD670S for one of its units.[3]
VividQ has advertised its technology in media using a DLPLCRC900DEVM.[4]
VividQ worked with Dispelix to create holographic waveguides.[5]
In 2026, VividQ announced an augmented reality glasses hardware development platform named Starfish.
History[edit]
VividQ was founded by Darran Milne, who had seen research in holograms while attending Cambridge University.[2]
