Brighton Corporation Attracts Investment from CNT Tech-DB Dream Big Investment Association

Brighton Corporation, a manufacturer of ultra-small laser optical engines and holographic optical engines, has successfully attracted investment from the 'CNT Tech-DB Dream Big Investment Association' jointly formed by investment specialist accelerator CNT Tech and DB Capital, a new technology business financing company of DB Group.

Based on its differentiated technology in the field of micro-projection displays, Brighton Corporation is developing an ultra-small laser optical engine (Laser-LCoS/DLP method) that can be applied to automotive AR head-up displays (AR HUDs), IP HUDs and vehicle projection displays, medical 3D dental scanner optical engines, media laser projectors, metaverse devices (AR glasses, VR devices), and sensing devices.

Brighton Corporation's technology is to implement existing industrial lasers into ultra-small laser optical engines, and it possesses the world's only ultra-small optical engine technology that has acquired the first-class laser safety. While existing competitors have adopted the LED method, showing limitations in output and heat generation, Brighton Corporation has solved these problems through pure RGB-based laser technology, securing excellent color reproducibility and energy efficiency.

In recognition of this technological prowess, Brighton Corporation has been registered as an official supplier to top German automobile manufacturers and has also signed supply contracts with major European telecommunications companies. The company said that it is currently developing a holographic AR HUD (AR HUD, IP HUD) in cooperation with various domestic and foreign mobility companies, and that discussions on exporting overseas are also actively underway.

Team Leader Hyun-soon Choi (Reviewer) of CNTTech said, “Recently, global automobile manufacturers have been developing vehicle displays in the direction of improving user experience with large screens, high resolution, new technologies (3D, AR, etc.), and privacy modes,” and evaluated, “The HUD business, where Brighton Corporation’s technology can be applied, is competitive in a new industry with high growth potential along with the advent of the electric vehicle era.”

DB Capital Team Leader Kang Seok-min also said, “Brighton Corporation’s optical engine boasts optimal power efficiency based on high safety, and with excellent color reproducibility and reasonable price, we expect high growth in both B2B and B2C markets.”

Jae-Hwang Yoo, CEO of Brighton Corporation, expressed his ambition, saying, “Through this investment, we will further enhance the perfection of our technology and actively target the global market with high value-added core products based on our unrivaled market-leading technology.”
