CREAL Raises $7.2 Million to Bring its Light-field Display to AR Glasses

Road to VR

Switzerland-based CREAL is developing a light-field display which it hopes to bring to VR headsets and eventually AR glasses. Normally these two eye functions work unconsciously in sync, hence the so-called ‘vergence-accommodation conflict’ when they don’t. In November the company raised CHF 6.5 million (~$7.2 million (~$7.2

Hands-on: CREAL is Shrinking Its Light-field Display for AR & VR Headsets

Road to VR

Switzerland-based CREAL is developing a light-field display which it believes will fit into VR headsets and eventually AR glasses. Normally these two eye functions work unconsciously in sync, hence the so-called ‘vergence-accommodation conflict’ when they don’t. CREAL’s approach aims to get us a several steps closer.

Founded by CERN Engineers, CREAL3D’s Light-field Display is the Real Deal

Road to VR

Co-founded by former CERN engineers who contributed to the ATLAS project at the Large Hadron Collider, CREAL3D is a Switzerland-based startup that’s created an impressive light-field display that’s unlike anything in an AR or VR headset on the market today. This was accomodation at work (the dynamic focus of each individual eye).
