Lumus Brings Revolutionary Waveguide Technology to Smartglasses at CES 2026

At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2026, Lumus unveiled its latest waveguide technology that is set to elevate the optical quality of high-end smartglasses. The company's optimized Z-30 and 70-degree FOV waveguides have been making waves in the industry, offering a massive upgrade over previous generations.

The new waveguides boast a wider field of view (FOV), with the Z-30 model offering a 30-degree FOV that is 30% lighter and 40% thinner than its predecessors. This means that smartglasses can now be designed to be even smaller, more lightweight, and more power-efficient. Lumus' waveguides are also capable of producing over 8,000 nits per watt, making them significantly brighter and sharper than existing technology.

The company's 70-degree FOV waveguide took the show by storm, with users being blown away by its ability to display a vast area in the center of the lens. While there were some minor issues with pincushion distortion, Lumus assured that this will be addressed in final retail units. The new waveguides produced some of the sharpest and brightest optics from any smartglasses prototype or retail model.

One of the biggest advantages of Lumus' geometric reflective waveguides is their efficiency compared to refractive counterparts. This allows for easier integration with transitions lenses, eliminating the need for clip-on sunglass attachments when going outside. Additionally, Lumus claims its designs simplify the manufacturing process, resulting in even thinner waveguides (as small as 0.8mm) and higher yields.

As Lumus ramps up production of its new waveguides with partners like Quanta and SCHOTT, it's clear that smartglasses makers will be clamoring for these components. The company's innovative technology is poised to revolutionize the industry, making high-end smartglasses even more desirable and functional.
 
I mean, think about it... we're talking about smartglasses here, right? We want them to be small, light, and powerful. But what's the real prize here? Is it just having a really good display or is it something deeper? It's efficiency, my friend! Lumus' waveguides are all about simplifying manufacturing and reducing waste. That's where the real innovation lies. It's not just about making things brighter or smaller; it's about creating systems that work in harmony with each other. We can learn a thing or two from this tech about how to streamline our own lives, cut out unnecessary complexity, and focus on what really matters. 🤖💡
 
omg, can u imagine wearing smart glasses with a 70-degree FOV? it's like having an entire screen right in front of ur face!!! i was watching the CES 2026 live stream and lumus' waveguide tech looked insane 🤯... i mean, who needs regular ol' screens when u can have one integrated into ur glasses? it makes total sense that they're getting so much attention - tech like this is literally changing the game for augmented reality and all that. btw, 8,000 nits per watt is crazy! 💥
 
I'm stoked about Lumus' waveguide tech 🤩, it's definitely a game changer for smartglasses. I mean, who wouldn't want way brighter, sharper optics without having to sacrifice size or power efficiency? The 70-degree FOV is pretty insane, but pincushion distortion is a bummer... hopefully they fix that soon.

One thing that got me is how efficient these waveguides are 🤔. If Lumus can make them even thinner and more widely available, it's gonna open up so many design possibilities for smartglasses. And the fact that they're already partnering with major companies like Quanta and SCHOTT is a big win. It'll be interesting to see how these waveguides are integrated into consumer products... one thing's for sure, Lumus is bringing some serious heat 🔥 to the smartglass industry!
 
OMG 💥 I'm so hyped about Lumus' new waveguide tech 🤯! They're literally taking smartglasses to the next level with their optimized Z-30 and 70-degree FOV waveguides 📺👀 The fact that they can produce over 8,000 nits per watt is insane 💥 I mean, who wouldn't want a pair of super bright, sharp glasses that are also way more power-efficient than before? 😎 It's like, the future is now! 🌟
 
I'm so over how hyped everyone's getting about Lumus' new waveguide tech 🙄. Like, yeah, it's a thing that makes smartglasses sharper and brighter... whoop-de-doo. Can we talk about the real issue here? The fact that these glasses are still gonna be super expensive and only cater to the super rich? I mean, come on, if we're making smartglasses that can display 8,000 nits per watt, shouldn't they at least try to make them more affordable for regular people too? And don't even get me started on how "revolutionary" this tech is... it's just a bunch of fancy engineering that's gonna make some companies richer 💸.
 
omg imagine having a pair of smartglasses with that much brightness lol its like wearing a mini projector on your face 🤯📈 but seriously lumus needs to make these waveguides affordable ASAP so we can get our hands on them 👍
 
I think what's really cool here is how this tech can help us have a better relationship with our glasses. Like, we're always trying to fit them into a tiny space on our face, but now it sounds like they could actually be super light and portable. It makes me wonder, what if we spent more time enjoying the world around us instead of fiddling with our gadgets? Maybe that's the real innovation here: not just making stuff smaller and brighter, but also freeing up some space in our minds for creativity and spontaneity 🤔💡
 
🤔 I mean, can you imagine wearing smart glasses with like, a 70-degree FOV? It's crazy how much of an impact that kind of view would have on gaming or just general use. And Lumus is basically the game-changer here, their tech is so much more efficient than what's out there now. Like, no more clip-on sunglasses when you're outdoors? That sounds like a total win to me 🙌 I'm actually kinda excited to see where this tech takes us in the next few years...
 
I'm gonna say something weird... but hear me out 🤔. I think people are overhyping the whole waveguide tech thing. Don't get me wrong, it sounds cool and all that 💥, but is it really worth the fuss? Are we just gonna be glued to our smartglasses like a zombie apocalypse or what? 😴 I mean, what's the point of having super bright optics if you're still stuck in a sea of screens all day? 📱. Let's be real, most people don't even wear their smartglasses for hours on end... they just glance at them every now and then 🤷‍♂️. Maybe we should focus on making these things actually comfortable to use before we get too caught up in the tech specs 🙃.
