ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - Manufacturing conglomerate 3M and Himax Technologies Inc. on Sunday said they would team up to develop technology for mobile projectors.
3M developed a miniature LED projection engine that relies on technology provided by Himax, which makes semiconductors for flat
panel displays.
'We believe that embedding projectors into mobile devices is the future, and we are pleased to announce our alliance with Himax. Himax provides a unique color filter LCOS that, when coupled with 3M's proprietary optics, delivers excellent image quality in an ultra-compact package,' Mike Kelly, executive vice president of 3M's display and graphics business, said in a statement.
