    TAINAN, Taiwan, Dec. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Himax Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:HIMX) ("Himax" or "Company"), a leading supplier and fabless manufacturer of display drivers and other semiconductor products, and Liqxtal Technology Inc. ("Liqxtal"), a subsidiary of Himax dedicated to developing various liquid crystal optical components with exceptional design expertise, today jointly unveiled a series of cutting-edge, patented products, including Liqxtal® Graph, Liqxtal® Dim and Liqxtal® Pro-Eye, all featuring advanced tunable liquid crystal-based optical technologies for specialized applications in vision care and smart eyewear to be showcased at CES 2025, the world's largest consumer electronics show, held in Las Vegas, Nevada, U.S.A. from January 7-10, 2025. Notably making its debut at CES 2025, the Liqxtal Pro-Eye is an innovative display that redefines vision wellness, prioritizing eye health while delivering exceptional clarity and comfort for users.

    Liqxtal's Cutting-Edge Liquid Crystal Technologies Liqxtal® Graph, Liqxtal® Dim and Liqxtal® Pro-Eye

    Liqxtal's Cutting-Edge Liquid Crystal Technologies Liqxtal® Graph, Liqxtal® Dim and Liqxtal® Pro-Eye

    Liqxtal focuses on the development of liquid crystal optical technologies, dedicated to exploring broader possibilities for liquid crystal applications, particularly in displays and smart wearable devices. Its Liqxtal Pro-Eye display monitor is specifically designed for vision care, addressing age-related presbyopia and slowing the progression of myopia for school-aged children. Its unique design optimizes for the most comfortable viewing distance, alleviating strain on the ciliary muscle and reducing eye fatigue. Liqxtal Pro-Eye introduces a redefined, personalized screen interaction, delivering exceptional comfort and clarity for daily use. This remarkable innovation significantly reduces eye discomfort, making it especially appealing in today's screen-centric world, as demonstrated by multiple ongoing engineering projects with leading companies.

    At CES, Liqxtal will also showcase its one-of-a-kind professional smart eyewear collections, including the award-winning Liqxtal Graph and innovative Liqxtal Dim. The Liqxtal Graph, built on Liqxtal's patented reflective TFT liquid crystal architecture, displays digital content on the outer surface of the lenses without obstructing vision, while maintaining the comfort of conventional glasses. The latest Liqxtal Graph features Bluetooth connectivity and a mobile app for convenient operation, allowing users to upload images and switch display content in real-time, offering flexible and versatile usage scenarios. Additionally, the Liqxtal Dim technology will also be on display, integrating pixelated light valve control powered by Himax WiseEyeTM ultralow power AI sensing technology. This advanced system detects the position of incident light in real time, enabling adaptive light tuning for smart sunglasses and programmable light attenuation patterns for visual training devices. By seamlessly integrating real-time responsiveness with versatile functionality, the Liqxtal Dim offers distinct advantages and opens new possibilities for smart eyewear applications.

    "Liqxtal is committed to advancing liquid crystal optical technologies and expanding their applications in display and optical components," said Dr. Hung Shan Chen, President of Liqxtal. "By leveraging Himax's WiseEye AI expertise alongside Liqxtal's innovations in liquid crystal technologies, we continue to push the boundaries of innovation, driving breakthroughs in the AR/VR industries," concluded Dr. Chen.

    Himax and Liqxtal invite all interested parties to stop by our exhibition booth at The Venetian Las Vegas Hotel (3355 Las Vegas Boulevard S, Las Vegas, Nevada, U.S.A.) Venetian Tower Suite 34-208 to experience these innovations firsthand. To schedule a meeting or booth tour, please contact Himax at: [email protected] or Liqxtal at [email protected].
