The quality of RGB laser projectors, which are now capable of projecting three-dimensional 4K films with a luminous flux of approximately 60,000 lm or more, depends fully on the micro-optics used. Specifically for the red spectral range, where laser diode bars or mini-bars are used, LIMO offers special FACs and SAC arrays (for independent collimation of both axes) as well as BTS (for beam transformation on free-beam lasers with a symmetrical beam profile, or for fiber coupling). LIMO also performs the installation of its optics. While LIMO micro-optics stand out due to their high performance and quality, they also come at an attractive price thanks to their efficient wafer production. The "monolithic fiber-coupler" is in particularly high demand. Dr. Homburg notes, "A single fiber-coupler can couple the light of a mini-bar with up to 10 emitters into one fiber. To me, that's true cost-efficiency – something that can also be found on our micro-optics for the green and blue spectral ranges." This means that, thanks to LIMO technology, viewing movies in laser brilliance is becoming an affordable pleasure. And that would fit perfectly with the idea behind the "International Year of Light and Light-Based Technologies."
