01 China Optoelectronic Exposition Awards: The "technological touchstone" in the optoelectronic field

To understand the significance of Hongshi Intelligence's award, it is necessary to first delve into the industry status of the China International Optoelectronic Exposition (CIOE) and its awards. As the world's top optoelectronic event, the CIOE has evolved into one of the largest and most influential optoelectronic exhibitions globally since its inception in 1999.

The optoelectronic expo is not merely a commercial exhibition but a comprehensive platform integrating industry, academia, research, and investment. The "Optoelectronic Exposition Awards," as its core awards, are renowned for their rigorous technical review system and forward-looking industrial vision. The judging panel of this year's awards consists of academicians from the two national academies, experts from top research institutions, and industry leaders. Therefore, the selection criteria are extremely strict, and projects that win the awards are all industry models with outstanding performance in technological innovation, market potential, and industrialization capabilities.

02 Silver Award: A strong endorsement of Hongshi Intelligence's technological approach

After three rounds of document reviews and a final round of on-site defense reviews, Hongshi Intelligence won the silver award at the Optoelectronic Exposition. The profound meaning of this goes far beyond a simple honor certificate. At a time when the technological approaches for MicroLED full-color display are still under intense exploration and competition, the awarding of the Optoelectronic Exposition Award is equivalent to a firm vote of confidence from the top industry authorities and the expert judging panel for the technological approach chosen by Hongshi Intelligence. This is not a coincidence but the highest recognition of the company's technological R & D and innovation efforts in the direction of the "Monolithic full-color micro-display optical chip based on hybrid stacked structure."

This authoritative endorsement has great market value. It can not only significantly enhance the confidence of downstream AR/VR device manufacturers and brand customers, proving that Hongshi Intelligence's technical solution is reliable for large-scale commercial applications, but also attract potential venture capital and industrial capital, as it verifies that Hongshi Intelligence's innovation direction is correct and its products have a solid foundation to enter the market. This award has successfully transformed Hongshi Intelligence's technological achievements into powerful market brand assets and commercial value, providing strong support for its leading position in the MicroLED field.

03 From the "dilemma of three primary colors" to "monolithic full-color": A revolutionary technological leap

The root cause of the difficulty in achieving full-color display in MicroLED lies in the inherent limitations of materials. In the current semiconductor system, blue and green light chips mainly rely on gallium nitride (GaN) materials. However, when GaN needs to emit long-wavelength red light, its luminous efficiency drops sharply due to lattice mismatch, creating an insurmountable "red light gap."

Facing this industry problem, Hongshi Intelligence did not follow the traditional path but chose a unique path that combines materials science and microfabrication technology - Quantum Dot Photon Recycling (QDPR) technology, and on this basis, achieved an architectural innovation of "hybrid stacking."

Different from simply coating quantum dots in traditional color conversion solutions, Hongshi Intelligence's QDPR technology perfectly combines quantum dot materials with semiconductor lithography processes, achieving nanoscale precise patterning of quantum dots on the wafer. This key technological breakthrough fundamentally solves the pain points of large energy conversion loss and poor stability in traditional solutions, pushing the efficiency and reliability of quantum dot color conversion to an unprecedented level. The peak brightness of Hongshi Intelligence's single red light reaches 2 million nits, a value that far exceeds that of some red light chips using native AlGaInP materials, completely shattering the inherent perception of low quantum dot conversion efficiency.

Facing the long - standing problem of red light emission stability in the MicroLED industry, Hongshi Intelligence has presented an impressive answer through its innovative Quantum Dot Photon Recycling (QDPR) technology. This technology has demonstrated excellent reliability in rigorous environmental tests: in a high - temperature working environment of up to 70°C, the attenuation of red light brightness is controlled within 10%. Even after 1000 hours of continuous high - intensity operation tests, the attenuation rate of red light brightness also remains below 10%. This performance significantly surpasses that of traditional red light solutions using native AlGaInP materials, which usually experience a sharp drop in brightness at around 40°C.

More groundbreakingly, Hongshi Intelligence combines the QDPR technology with its unique "hybrid stacked structure" to achieve the integration of red, green, and blue pixel arrays on a single chip. This technological approach perfectly combines the dual advantages of "high performance" and "high stability," fundamentally solving the complex manufacturing and efficiency loss problems faced by MicroLED full - color display.

04 Dual - track strategy: Hongshi Intelligence's far - sighted full - color display strategy

It is worth mentioning that while winning the industry award with the "monolithic full - color" solution, Hongshi Intelligence also clearly stated that it has also invested a large amount of resources in the R & D of the three - color light - combining solution. The "Aurora Glow XC6" full - color optical engine exhibited by Hongshi Intelligence at this expo is a representative product based on the three - color light - combining solution. The combined light brightness of this optical engine exceeds 2.5 million nits, and the energy efficiency reaches 8 lumens per watt. Its ultra - small volume of 0.35 cc and excellent color performance with a color gamut coverage of 155% sRGB provide a solution for the practical application of AR glasses in outdoor scenarios. This seemingly diversified strategic layout precisely reflects the maturity and foresight of Hongshi Intelligence as a technology leader.

The monolithic full - color solution, with its advantages of extremely small volume and high integration, is the pursuit goal of the ultimate form of AR glasses. The three - color light - combining solution is more mature in mass production at the current stage. Also applied to AR glasses, it can first meet the market's demand for high brightness, ultra - small volume, excellent color performance, and stability.

This dual - track strategy not only hedges the potential risks of a single technological approach but also establishes competitive advantages in technology and the market in different niche markets simultaneously, thus building an unshakable moat for Hongshi Intelligence in the entire MicroLED industry chain.

05 Conclusion: Breaking through technological barriers, the future of AR is here

Winning the silver award at the China Optoelectronic Exposition is an inevitable result of Hongshi Intelligence's long - term exploration and technological accumulation in the MicroLED field. This heavy medal is not only an authoritative certification of its technological strength but also a strong proof of the correctness of its strategic direction. It represents that Hongshi Intelligence has successfully found the perfect balance between the ultimate performance of native light - emitting and the mass - production convenience of color conversion, providing valuable experience and a new development direction for the entire MicroLED industry.

When the "dilemma of three primary colors" is gradually overcome and high - performance full - color display modules are no longer just concepts in the laboratory, we have reason to believe that Chinese innovative forces represented by Hongshi Intelligence are accelerating the illumination of the future of the AR industry.
