Myrias Optics is a pioneering company developing innovative metaoptical components and modules. They utilize a proprietary platform to design and manufacture nanostructured metaoptics that manipulate light with exceptional precision. This technology addresses a crucial challenge in AR/VR and other fields: the lack of affordable, compact, and high-performance optics.

Myrias' solution lies in a patented "materials, structure, and manufacturing" platform. This allows them to rapidly "print" intricate nano-patterns onto various substrates, creating ultra-durable metaoptics at a fraction of the cost compared to traditional methods. This not only makes them ideal for AR/VR devices but also opens doors for applications like smartphones, biometric systems, and terrain mapping.

Vermeer is a leading innovator in the field of vision-based navigation, specializing in solutions for defense and aerospace applications. Their technology addresses the critical challenge of unreliable GPS signals in contested and GPS-denied environments, such as those encountered in recent events like the conflict in Ukraine.

Vermeer's core technology leverages computer vision to provide unparalleled navigation capabilities for drones and unmanned systems. Their software, called VPS, compares real-time video feeds with pre-mapped 3D terrain stored locally, enabling accurate location determination even when GPS is unavailable or compromised. This innovative software-only solution allows any platform to operate effectively in situations where traditional GPS guidance fails.
