Sorry for your loss

PS - I think you replied to my email, in this thread, lol.

My condolenses for the loss.

Good to see you are back. You always have the impressive lasers of all wavelengths.

This may have already been posted but here is 60mW 510nm diodes and 50 mW 520 mw diodes
LD1963 510nm 60mW | Green Laser Diode
LD1972 520nm 50mW | Green Laser Diode

I also found this which I thought was interesting.

@ lazerman121

Thanks for posting these newest datasheet links.

May 31, 2012 - (BUSINESS WIRE) - MicroVision, Inc.
MicroVision Receives Purchase Orders in Excess of $4M from Pioneer Corporation for PicoP® Gen2 Technology

Quote:

MicroVision, Inc. . . . today announced that it has received purchase orders from Pioneer Corporation valued in excess of $4 million. The purchase orders cover key components, including MEMS and electronics, which are part of the company’s patented next generation HD PicoP® display technology based on direct green lasers (PicoP Gen2) that Pioneer is integrating into its Cyber Navi car navigation system.

Quote:

Pioneer is MicroVision’s first customer under its Image by PicoP ingredient brand business model whereby it sells components and receives license fees and royalties for its patented PicoP display technology. Pioneer’s Cyber Navi head-up display (HUD) is the first commercial product based on MicroVision’s PicoP Gen2 display technology.

MicroVision has already begun shipping components to Pioneer for its aftermarket HUD product that is expected to be available in Japan in July. The Cyber Navi is the world’s first HUD to project augmented reality information in front of the windscreen and the world’s first onboard HUD to use lasers. The product was designed to offer drivers a new way to experiencing data on the road.

Pioneer will combine the MEMS and electronics it receives from MicroVision with red, blue and direct green lasers from Pioneer’s laser suppliers to create optical engines based on MicroVision’s patented PicoP reference design. The PicoP display technology embedded in the HUD delivers bright, clear, full color images viewable in daylight in a small form factor with low power requirements.

Wow that gizmo is awesome. So the direct green laser diode is on it's way to us and price is on it's way down. Great find +1

Need to spread some more rep.

AnthoT · 06-03-2012, 01:49 PM

I asked for a quote for the 510nm 60mw diode, I'm really curious as to what the prices will be... If its not too expensive maybe I'll pick up a few

maybe if there is quantity discounts a GB?

Anyway I'll let you guys know when they reply

ZRaffleticket · 06-03-2012, 02:58 PM

That'd be worth spending maybe $400 at most for me right now. That is if the price is around that. Let us know when you find out!

I will

Blord · 06-03-2012, 03:20 PM

$400 is too steep for just a diode.
For this money I could buy a complete 80mW 473nm handheld laser.

Turquoise color is beautiful !!

510 is a nice color too

Smartphones Boost Projectors

Quote:

New research from GBI Research has shown that the increase in smartphone usage will drive the global growth of pico or handheld devices used to project images or presentations.

Quote:

The new report shows that pico projectors are following in the footsteps of HD video recording, high-resolution cameras, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technologies, which are now essential attributes on most smartphones.
At the moment, advancements in laser technologies are needed to compete with LED light sources in pico projectors. The market leader in laser-based pico projectors, Microvision, currently uses a complex green laser to create a full colour image. This technology is costlier than red and blue laser diodes and less efficient than direct green lasers.

Quote:

Companies such as OSRAM, Nichia, Soraa, Sumitomo SEI and Corning are in the process of producing commercial direct green lasers using InGaN semiconductors with wavelengths in the 510-531nm range. However, compared to an LED light source, lasers are very costly and difficult to mass produce, though image quality is far superior.
Technological advancements in the green laser market must therefore step it up in order to compete with LED-based pico projectors.

Quote:

The global pico projector market generated revenues of around $0.49 billion in 2011, a figure which is expected to grow at a colossal compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 75% during 2011–2016, to reach $8.12 billion in 2016.

AnthoT · 06-14-2012, 08:38 PM

I got a quote...

At a quantity of 20 peices it would be 300$ each

no warranty either..

Anyone interested?

ZRaffleticket · 06-14-2012, 08:59 PM

Yes. if you have a list add me to it!
No other words are needed from me.

I may do a GB

these are expensive diodes so we would need a bit of interest...

ZRaffleticket · 06-14-2012, 09:15 PM

I don't think you'll have any problems finding enough people. I'll halt my current project to get my hands on one of these for sure...

Fretwrecker94 · 06-14-2012, 09:25 PM

Oh man, everyday we're getting closer and closer to these! That GB would be crazy! I wouldn't be able to afford it, but I'm dying to know what hosts would become filled with 510nm goodness! It'd really suck if someone killed one. But I'm sure at $300 only serious and skilled builders would attempt it

I wouldn't attempt it

I'd just try and make them available

Blord · 06-14-2012, 09:30 PM

What is the specified power output ? And the package is 3.8mm diode as usual ?

50mw of 510nm +-5nm, 3.8mm package.

Exact same diode RHD made a thread on

If anyone is interested I'll try getting a quote for a 25mw 515nm diode. It's 5.6mm & maybe it costs less

ZRaffleticket · 06-14-2012, 09:47 PM

Not much of a skiller builder but I'm going to try building one. Who knows when another opportunity comes around... I just better not screw up, so I'm going to use my 685's as my test group beforehand... if its the same thing as RHD found then he should be able to help with current "needs" if he hasn't already posted in his review.

IIRC it was being run at 200mA... And output a stable 50mw
