Appotronics and Ceres Holographics Partner to Accelerate Global Adoption of Transparent HUD Technology
Appotronics ALPD®-based projection solutions can now be combined with Ceres’ HoloFlekt™ holographic-enabled display technology to display information in bright, large and non-distractive formats on any glass surface to enhance safety, HMI and UX
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Appotronics, a leader in laser display industry, today announced the signing of an agreement with Ceres Holographics, a pioneer in the development of holographic-enabled transparent displays. The partnership aims to combine their technologies for in-car display solutions, including driver and passenger transparent heads-up display (HUDs).
A demonstration of the combined HUD system has been shown at CES 2025 at Appotronics demo suite, located at the Ren Boardroom, 2nd floor, Renaissance Las Vegas Hotel, from January 7 to 10, 2025.
Through this partnership, Appotronics will provide Ceres and its other holographic windshield partners with another key link in the supply chain required to deliver complete systems to its expanding base of OEM customers. Together the extended partnership could provide more intuitive, flexible and distraction-free high resolution display solutions for next generation vehicles.
The partnership expands the benefits of Appotronics’ high-performance ALPD® (Advanced Laser Phosphor Display) projection technology, and Ceres’ design capability as well as its HoloFlext™ manufacturing technology, to meet the size, cost, reliability and viewability requirements of the most innovative automotive OEMs. Together, the two compaines is expected to accelerate the development and widespread adoption of transparent HUD technology, enhancing safty and delivering a more intelligent driving experience.
