[News] Vuzix and TCL CSOT Expand Partnership to Deliver a Total Optical Solution Featuring Advanced, Compact, High-Brightness MicroLED and Production-Ready Waveguide Optics

Vuzix® Corporation, a leading supplier of AI-powered smart glasses, waveguides and Augmented Reality (AR) technologies, and TCL China Star Optoelectronics Technology, a leading display panel manufacturer specializing in advanced display technologies, today announced a long-term partnership to jointly propel the integration of microLED displays and waveguide optics. This partnership aims to deliver integration-friendly, scalable, and cost-effective optical solutions for the smart glasses industry.

Vuzix waveguides combine high transparency with minimal forward light leakage, delivering superior image quality and a rainbow-free viewing experience. This integrated optical solution is engineered to be ultra-compact, bright, and cost-effective, and is powered by TCL CSOT’s industry-leading microLED microdisplay technology. Together, the two companies are delivering a complete modular solution to accelerate adoption by smart glasses OEMs and consumer brands.

The companies successfully integrated mono-green microLED engines with Vuzix waveguides, which were recently showcased at the China International Optoelectronic Exposition (CIOE). This initial configuration has been validated as a rapid, off-the-shelf optical solution for ODM/OEM customers. In addition, Vuzix and TCL CSOT are actively co-developing a full-color microLED and waveguide optical solution, with a planned release in early 2026, marking a significant milestone toward high-volume adoption of consumer and enterprise AR applications.

“We are excited to enter into this collaboration with TCL CSOT. The combination of microLEDs and waveguide optics is a key enabler for the next generation of smart glasses,” said Paul Travers, President and CEO of Vuzix. “This partnership represents not only a near-term opportunity but also a long-term product and market roadmap.”

The joint solution debuted at the China International Optoelectronic Exposition (CIOE) in Shenzhen from September 10–12, 2025. Industrial OEM/ODM leaders had the opportunity to experience the combined capabilities of Vuzix waveguides and TCL CSOT microLED engines first-hand, highlighting the performance and production readiness of this next-generation AR optical solution.
