Metalenz, Inc. is a fabless semiconductor company that was founded in 2016 by Bart Riley, Aman Jabbi, and Robert Devlin. The company is based in Boston, MA and has exclusive worldwide license to the portfolio of foundational intellectual property relating to metasurfaces developed in the Capasso lab at Harvard University. Metalenz has more than 20 patents on innovations that simplify and improve optical devices across multiple markets. The company's "meta-optics" allow complex optical sensing solutions to be shrunk to a size and price point compatible with mobile devices. Metalenz combines the functionality of three or four complex lenses and components into a single flat device, which is mass produced in existing semiconductor foundries. The company's metasurface technology provides complex, multifunctional optical performance in a single semiconductor layer, relocating large-scale production of optics to semiconductor foundries. Metalenz has launched out of stealth in 2021 with funding from leading investors including 3M Ventures, Applied Ventures LLC, Intel Capital, M Ventures, TDK Ventures, and Foothill Ventures. The company's metasurface optics will be in millions of consumer devices this year and have already been integrated in consumer devices with dot pattern projectors for facial recognition and lenses for 3D sensing. Metalenz is enabling the next generation of 3D sensing in consumer electronics, automotive, and industrial robotics markets. The company's Polareyes™, a mobile form factor polarization imaging system, was recognized with a Prism Award in Cameras and Imaging from SPIE.
