JBD unveils Hummingbird projector at CIOE 2024 in Shenzhen

At the CIOE 2024 event in Shenzhen, JBD introduced its latest innovations in augmented reality technology, showcasing the Hummingbird I optical module and the Hummingbird Mini II monochrome projector. The Hummingbird I optical module stands out with its remarkable in-eye brightness of over 6000 nits, significantly surpassing the typical brightness levels found in waveguide AR glasses. This advancement ensures that users experience clear visuals even in bright environments, enhancing the overall AR experience. The Hummingbird Mini II, which is now in mass production, is a compact projector that weighs only 0.3 grams and is about the size of a red bean. Despite its small form factor, it delivers impressive performance with 8 lumens of luminous flux and over 8000 nits of brightness when used with a waveguide. This projector is designed for lightweight smart glasses, making it a practical choice for all-day use due to its low power consumption of just 60mW. JBD's innovations are backed by advancements in MicroLED technology, which have doubled the efficiency of the Hummingbird I color engine. This technology not only enhances brightness but also optimizes battery life, making it suitable for extended use. The Hummingbird series reflects JBD's commitment to meeting the growing demands of the AR market, with plans for large-scale manufacturing of MicroLED displays in the coming years. As JBD continues to lead in AR innovation, the introduction of these products signifies a pivotal moment for the AR ecosystem. The company aims to collaborate with industry partners to further explore the potential of smart glasses as a platform for AI interaction, driving the adoption of this technology forward.
