LEIA Inc is a Silicon Valley startup company developing an interactive holographic display for mobile devices. LEIA is also developing software tools to facilitate the creation of content for its holographic platform. Besides its use for mobile applications (wearables, Internet of Things (IoT); smartphones, tablets), LEIA’s technology is also aimed at the automotive and medical markets. The display uses standard LCD technology augmented by a proprietary diffraction layer that lets any number of viewers experience a 3D stereoscopic effect from a wide view zone,〔("The Holographic Smartphone Display Is Real, and It's Awesome" ), Yahoo Tech, March 2015〕 with full parallax and smooth transitions between views, without the need for glasses or eye-tracking hardware/software.〔(“Scientists Have Created A Glasses-Free, 3D Display” ), The Guardian, March 2013〕 The company was founded by former HP Labs researchers and became completely independent in January 2014, after closing a series A funding round. The headquarter is in Menlo Park, California with a nanofabrication center in Palo Alto and the assembly facility is in Suzhou, China. == History == LEIA’s display technology relies on a technological breakthrough—a multiview backlight—developed by the core LEIA team during their tenure at HP Labs in Palo Alto.〔("New 3D Display Could Let Phones And Tablets Produce Holograms" ), MIT Technology Review, March 2013〕 The team had been working on an early laser-based version in 2011 before transitioning to a more standard LED-based illumination system in 2012.〔(David Fattal “Mobile Holography” ), Stanford talks, April 2014〕 In 2013, the first dynamic prototypes were demonstrated, and the same year the technology was featured on the cover of Nature.〔(“A Multi-Directional Backlight For A Wide-Angle, Glasses-Free Three-Dimensional Display” ), Nature, March 2013〕 In January 2014, LEIA Inc was founded as an independent entity after closing a series A funding round. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「LEIA Inc」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
