There is a researcher who takes pride in producing light that is not only visible, but invisible as well.
KOPTI (Korea Photonics Technology
Institute) participated in the 18th International LED & OLED EXPO 2020 in
KINTEX on Nov. 11-13 and introduced the optic technologies that lead the market
and industry.
KOPTI made various contributions in LED and
light-related industries and research, and it is trying to fulfill the motto of
opening the future with light and technology as an optical convergence
technology research center. The field that KOPTI is doing research on is almost
all fields related to light such as lighting, lasers, sensors, and lenses. It
literally creates a variety of lights from visible light to invisible light.
In this way, they are engaged in cooperative
projects with companies that need the light created in the market, and
practicing various win-win management such as test certification and equipment
support.
Paik Jong-hyup, the head of the
headquarters who participated in the event, said, "We are striving to
fulfill our role as a hub for optical convergence by securing the core engines
necessary for fostering the optical convergence industry and establishing an
integrated support system that coexists with companies. The most important part
in the autonomous vehicles is the "eyes," and the core technologies that open
the future, such as automobile cameras created by the combination of car and
optical technology, are the result of optical fusion technology."
