Crystal Optoelectronics: AR-HUD has been designated by a number of depot projects, and the laser radome has been mass-produced

Jiwei Network News, Crystal Optoelectronics has recently received a number of investment institutions. Xiong Bo, deputy general manager and secretary of the board of directors of Crystal Optoelectronics, introduced the company's situation and answered questions.

According to reports, the main production base of Crystal Optoelectronics in Taizhou, Jiangxi, Crystal Light Radio Prefecture new plant covers an area of 300 acres, Jiangxi plant covers an area of 150 acres, in Taizhou and Jiangxi company is preparing more land to meet the needs of future capacity expansion. The 80 acres of land in the new factory area of Yeshi Li, a subsidiary of Crystal Optoelectronics, has been completed and is preparing for relocation.

In April this year, Crystal Optoelectronics started the establishment of the Vietnamese production base, the plant has been completed in the basic construction and decoration, and the management personnel sent by Crystal Optoelectronics and the first batch of local employees in Vietnam have been in place. In terms of global layout, Crystal Optoelectronics has set up subsidiaries or offices in North America, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore and South Korea, so that Crystal Optoelectronics can provide customers with better and more timely services. Crystal Optoelectronics is also preparing to build the company's southern base in Dongguan, mainly around the layout of automotive electronics and AR/VR business.

Crystal Optoelectronics AR-HUD products In addition to Hongqi, it has been designated by a number of domestic vehicle manufacturers, and it is expected that crystal optoelectronics AR-HUD products can be seen on more models next year.

In addition to AR-HUD, around the intelligent cockpit and intelligent driving, Crystal Optoelectronics has many other products and applications in automobiles, such as Crystal Optoelectronics' products are used in automotive front-view cameras, rear-view cameras, and surround-view cameras.

In the automotive lidar, crystal photoelectric lidar products have been mass-produced, and a number of industry-leading lidar manufacturers have been in business communication, in addition to lidar, prism and other optical components may also be mass-produced. Automobile driver status recognition is one of the fixed-point research and development projects of Crystal Optoelectronics, which identifies the fatigue state of the driver through the intelligent system and improves driving safety. Crystal Optoelectronics believes that there are good application prospects in the future in online ride-hailing and operating vehicles, and this year Crystal Optoelectronics has communicated with several online ride-hailing platforms and has achieved a small number of shipments. Smart pixel headlights are also new products being developed by Crystal Optoelectronics.

In terms of the progress of the smart phone business, at present, on the smart phone side, with the continuous enrichment of Crystal Optoelectronics' products, the value of Crystal Optoelectronics' stand-alone machines is also gradually increasing. Absorption reflection composite filter is a new product of Crystal Optoelectronics, which is processed by semiconductor optics on the basis of traditional infrared cut-off filters to reduce the reflection and refraction of light at the bottom of the infrared filter and improve imaging quality.

It is worth mentioning that at present, Crystal Optoelectronics has achieved the first mass production in China, and is also comprehensively promoting to the terminal. Traditional infrared cut-off filter with the fierce competition in the market, product prices and gross profit margins have tended to stabilize, absorption reflection composite filter due to more complex processes, as well as special adhesive materials, products have higher bargaining space. The coverage rate of absorption and reflection composite filters in high-end models will gradually increase in the future, and penetrate from high-end to mid-end and low-end, from the main camera to the auxiliary camera, which has broad industrial prospects.

In addition, the thin film optical panel product Crystal Optoelectronics has entered the mobile phone end, PAD end, automotive lidar protective cover products. In 2021, the rapid development of Crystal Optoelectronics thin-film optical panel business, the rapid increase in market share among customers, and the rapid climbing of production capacity and yield have provided a good performance supplement for Crystal Optoelectronics. In the future, thin film optical panel products will also be widely used in smart wearable devices, security monitoring, drones, smart furniture and other fields, and the huge market demand also makes Crystal Optoelectronics full of confidence in the growth of the thin film optical panel business.
