Kopin Corporation announced that it has executed new partner agreements to increase its OLED production capacity. The company operates its OLED microdisplay business in a fabless model and so it can utilize several OLED deposition and silicon wafer partners.
Kopin says that it entered these new agreements to support several US Department of Defense and NATO-friendly projects. Kopin says that via these new agreements, it also gained access to a broader set of OLED displays and other advanced technologies - which likely means it actually intends to buy complete displays from other OLED microdisplay makers.
Kopin recently spun-off its consumer OLED business unit to Lightning Silicon Technology, which also licensed Kopin's OLED technology. LST produces its displays at China-based Lakeside Optoelectronics.
