About us

Optics expertise
meets XR know-how.

XR OptiLab brings together two disciplines that rarely share a table: years of hands-on research in optics and lasers, and years of building intuitive, comfortable virtual and augmented reality. One founder knows how light behaves; the other knows how to make people feel at home in a virtual world.
