May 24, 2021 11:07


The world's top optoelectronic experts have led a team for many years of research, constantly overturning and rebuilding, and ultimately completing the verification of the entire set of patented technologies, breaking technological monopolies, reaching the top of the industry, and truly achieving the goal of standing after breaking through.


The third issue of "Seeing New Power" interviewed Dr. Li Wenzong, the founder of Shengyang Optics, who won the second prize in the national finals of the China 5G Industry Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition. He demonstrated the science and art of "light"


World's top optoelectronic expert with over 20 years of experience in the industry


Dr. Li Wenzong, majoring in Mechanical Engineering at National Taiwan University, has over 20 years of experience in the optical design and ultra precision machining industry. Today, he has become a globally renowned optical design expert with rich advanced technology industrialization capabilities.


In his career, Li Wenzong successively served as the Vice President of Taiwan Meilong Industry, General Manager of Taiwan Puler Digital Projection Business Unit, Technical Vice President of Hisense Group Laser Television Business Unit, and became the project leader of Taiwan Institute of Technology's "Five Year Development Plan for Projection Technology", which laid a solid foundation for the technology of Taiwan's projection industry.


In 2012, Dr. Li Wenzong served as the director of the "Laser Display Institute of Hisense Digital Multimedia Laboratory" of China's State Key Laboratory, and developed the world's first DLP micro projector, the first free-form surface ultra short focal projection, the first 4K laser TV and other sophisticated designs. Behind every "first" is a continuous exploration of this field, and it is the result of Dr. Li's countless days and nights of hard work with the R&D team.


Breaking technological monopolies and facing difficulties in research, development, and production


"In the field of ultra short focus optics, there is a leading enterprise that must be mentioned, which is Ricoh Japan. In 2012, Ricoh Japan launched a new patented technology called 'built-in separated reflection ultra short focus optics', which monopolized the entire ultra short focus market in just three years. Until now, more than 60% of the lenses used in ultra short focus projection still use Ricoh Japan's patented technology." Dr. Li Wenzong sighed.

Therefore, Dr. Li Wenzong, who is deeply involved in this industry, believes that it is imperative to develop China's ultra short coke industry, drive the development of related industries, and break industry monopolies. For a full three years, Dr. Li and his team have been constantly exploring, repeatedly overturning and rebuilding previous research. Finally, in 2019, the validation of the entire patented technology was completed.


According to Dr. Li, the invention patent technology of Shengyang Optics is the "reverse axis telecentric ultra short focus optical architecture". Its mass-produced products have achieved advantages such as smaller volume, higher yield, and lower price and cost, while maintaining the same quality as Japanese Ricoh ultra short focus lenses, which has led to leapfrog progress in China's ultra short focus industry.


Ultra short focus technology with a wide range of applications


It is undeniable that ultra short focal length optics will become a future development trend. Nowadays, VR&AR is becoming increasingly miniaturized and lightweight; The screens of high-tech equipment such as smart speakers are getting larger and larger; 4K laser TV products are becoming increasingly popular, and behind these products, ultra short focus lenses are playing a crucial role.


Of particular note, the all-new Mercedes Benz S series launched in September 2020 released the AR-HUD (Head Up Display), which recognizes the necessity of the existence and development of the ultra short focus industry. This application is an innovation in display technology for the automotive industry, and behind it is also a directional change in basic optical technology.
