Our Core Technology

Lumio’s technological advancements are focused on two primary areas:

·          Low cost, high resolution sensing technologies

·          Miniature, efficient projection technologies

This combination enables us to provide breakthrough virtual interfaces in a wide variety of configurations and applications.

Lumio’s sensing modules are miniature, custom designed infra-red sensing units and ground breaking algorithms that map user interactions in a two dimensional plane and can convert any inert surface into an interactive touch sensitive area/screen. Modules are available in a variety of resolutions and configurations from simple, low resolution key/button event applications to high resolution, high speed graphical input of handwriting recognition.

Lumio’s projectors are based on sophisticated Laser Diode based diffractive optical elements and high efficiency LED based projection engines, both tailored to generate large images at short throw lengths and strongly oblique angles. These images, whether static or dynamic, serve as an output reference for the virtual interface.  We are also in the development stage, together with the Fraunhofer Institute (ISIT), of a laser based MEMs micro mirror projection technology which will be small enough to fit into a cell phone form factor.
