Manufacturing
Our teams have been pioneering vertically-integrated manufacturing solutions for over a decade, designing and producing industry-leading display and augmented reality optics at scale, helping to merge the human experience with a digital one.
Research and Development
Inventing a new reality.
Everything at Magic Leap starts with an idea. How can we make it smaller? Lighter? Brighter? More efficient? Our dedicated R&D team conceptualizes, develops, and executes the creation of all of our patented waveguides, software, and custom manufacturing equipment. From the start, we’ve been refining our processes to develop first-in-class manufacturing solutions that work at scale.
Capabilities
Layers of possibility.
Continuous breakthroughs by our teams have enabled us to explore a spectrum of new possibilities in materials for waveguide production. With a suite of options, Magic Leap offers an immense array of AR experiences and options.
Equipment and Machinery
We make the machines that make our products.
Our processes and proprietary equipment are created in-house, enabling us to rapidly iterate, optimize, and scale the thinnest and lightest optics more efficiently and precisely.
Speed and Precision
Redefining waveguide fabrication.
Our proprietary Jet and Flash Imprint Lithography (JFIL) revolutionizes AR waveguide manufacturing. Unlike conventional lithography and multi-cycle 2D etching, JFIL creates complex 3D structures in one step, combining speed with precision. Backed by our proprietary Lithoflex platform and benchmarked by our TRUE KPI system — Transmission, Reflectivity, Uniformity, Efficiency — this process sets the standard for scalable, high-quality optics manufacturing.
