UK/IRL Chapter Online Seminar
Building the Future of Semiconductor Lighting with Surface-Emitting SLEDs - IsLight

During this presentation, we will not only examine our current capabilities but also explore our exciting future prospects. For example, we'll discuss the integration of RGB modules with NIR or SWIR for ranging applications. Additionally, we'll demonstrate the inherent application of our arrayed devices emitting in NIR or SWIR for biometrics.

Wednesday 6th December 4pm-5pm GMT

Speaker:
