Apple Vision Pro head shows the same optical solution, AAC announces successful mass production of 3P VR Pancake optical machine module

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen Xiao Zhan for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com June 9 news, AAC Technology announced today that its 3P VR Pancake optical machine module has successfully achieved mass production. According to reports, this module and Apple Vision Pro lenses use the same Pancake optical design.

▲ source: AAC AAC Technology said that the mass-produced 3P VR Pancake program has the characteristics of lighter mainframe, wider field of vision, more effective suppression of ghosts, friendlier myopia experience and clear edge images. Rui claims that it has developed single-layer full-color optical waveguide lenses in conjunction with Dispelix, an optical waveguide manufacturer, to achieve a balance between single-layer optical waveguide lens setting and large viewing angle and high definition.

▲ source: AAC industry insiders pointed out that the development trend of VR optics is "aspheric lens-Fresnel lens-Pancake". Previously, Fresnel lens scheme has become the mainstream scheme because of its mature technology and low cost, such as Oculus Quest2, Pico Neo3, iqiyi Adventure 3 and other products all adopt Fresnel scheme. The Vision Pro released by Apple brings Pancake design to people's eyes.

In addition, the Pancake scheme can support 0-700 °diopter adjustment, which is very friendly to people with myopia and farsightedness. Users can take off their glasses and experience the product directly, avoiding the embarrassment of wearing "two pairs of glasses".
