Metalenz unveils PolarEyes sensors that are 1,000 times smaller than a human hair
Join gaming leaders, alongside GamesBeat and Facebook Gaming, for their 2nd Annual GamesBeat & Facebook Gaming Summit | GamesBeat: Into the Metaverse 2 this upcoming January 25-27, 2022. Learn more about the event.
Metalenz unveiled a new kind of sensor dubbed PolarEyes, which uses polarization technology to bring a new kind of sensing to camera-equipped devices.
The sensors can detect air quality, or manage your healthcare from a smartphone based on your vials. The Harvard University-born meta-optics company also brings polarized lenses to consumer and mobile devices for improved privacy and security features.
The full-stack, system-level solution combines physics and optics, software and hardware, to power everything from next-generation smartphones and consumer electronics, to new healthcare and automotive applications.
Metalenz PolarEyes collects the polarized light information traditional cameras discard and parses through that information to better interpret the world around us.

“We’re just really excited now to see exactly how we can impact all of these industries,” said Robert Devlin, CEO of Metalenz, in an interview with VentureBeat. “The thing that we have set out to do is bring an entirely new form of sensing and put it into everyone’s pocket.”
We last wrote about them in February 2021, when they raised $10 million to create 3D sensors on a chip with structures that are 1,000 times smaller than a human hair.
That investment helped Metalenz scale production and accelerate the development of miniature optics on a chip technology and its new lens that could power the next generation of sensors for use in
