Exclusive: Eyeo exits stealth to give cameras human-like colour vision
Briefly

Dutch startup Eyeo has announced €15 million in funding to advance its innovative waveguide colour-splitting technology, which significantly improves camera image quality. Emerging from Belgium's Imec, the startup's approach uses tiny structures to guide and separate light by wavelength, tripling the light sensitivity of current sensors. This allows various types of cameras to operate more effectively, particularly in low-light conditions, and achieves a level of color fidelity akin to human vision. CEO Jeroen Hoet describes the innovation as a new standard for imaging, facilitating smaller, high-resolution camera designs without the light wastage conventional filters cause.
Eyeo's waveguide colour-splitting technology triples light sensitivity, enabling cameras, from DSLRs to smartphones, to capture brighter images with unprecedented colour fidelity.
Instead of blocking light with filters, Eyeo splits photons using tiny waveguides, allowing minuscule pixels and effectively doubling the resolution of a camera.
