Smart Contact Lens Company Mojo Vision Raises $22M, Pivots to Micro-LED Displays for XR & More

Mojo Vision, a company once noted for its work on smart contact lenses, has raised $22.4 million in a new Series A investment round which it will use in a pivot to develop and commercialize micro-LED display technology for consumer, enterprise, and government applications.

The funding round is led by existing investors NEA and Khosla Ventures, with participation from other investors including Dolby Family Ventures, Liberty Global Ventures, Fusion Fund, Drew Perkins, Open Field Capital, and Edge.

The new Series A comes months after the company was forced to put its smart contact lenses on hold, which also included a 75% downsizing in the company’s workforce.

Prior to the pivot, the company had amassed $205 million in outside investment, with its most recent in January 2022 bringing to the company $45 million.

Its new focus is on displays for AR/VR, automotive, light field, large format displays and others that require high performance micro-LED displays. Mojo’s prototype smart contacts made use of its own in-house displays, which at the time included a monochrome display capable of over 14,000 pixels per inch (ppi).

Now the company is developing its own High Performance Quantum Dot (HPQD) technology to make a “very small, very bright, very efficient RGB pixel,” the company says in a press statement.

The company is boasting a number of advances in its proprietary technology, including dynamic displays with up to 28,000ppi, efficient blue micro-LED devices at sub-μm scale, high efficiency quantum dot ink for red and green, high brightness at 1M+ nits, and a display system that incorporates an optimized CMOS backplane, wafer-to-wafer bonding, and custom micro-lens optics.

Mojo Vision’s new CEO, Dr. Nikhil Balram, is said to bring semiconductor and display technology expertise to the company:

“The market opportunity in the display industry is big – over $100 billion. Sometimes in order to do something very big, you have to start very small. That is exactly what we are doing at Mojo,” said Balram. “We started by developing the world’s smallest, densest dynamic micro-LED display, and now we are applying that innovation to power the next generation of displays. Mojo is combining breakthrough technology, leading display and semiconductor expertise, and an advanced manufacturing process to commercialize micro-LEDs for the most demanding hardware applications.”

“This round of funding will enable us to deliver our breakthrough monolithic micro-LED technology to customers and help bring high-performance micro-LEDs to market,” concluded Balram.

Punishment vs consequences

 Fifty six times out of 382 pqd is used with the preceding word being yl. 

I have not been absolutely consistent in my translation but I wondered if 'visit against/on/upon' could be allowed to be glossed as punish in English. It cannot. Because as is obvious pqd is used with yl for a variety of contexts.

There is certainly a threat in some of them. Who would want to have the consequences of some actions held against them? If husband or wife are to leave their spouse and children without cause - then will want and misery stand over the parent when the visitation is made against the parent? (You may note that Mr Dickens never uses the word punish in A Christmas Carol - he knew.)

HPQD: Das Konzert

Based not at all on my experience being dragged to a certain TikTok famous nepo baby’s concert earlier this month, I’d never to that to you guys.

MASTERPOST

· · ────── ·𖥸· ────── · ·

You know when your life just like can’t decide if it’s gonna be good or therapy-inducing? That’s how I’ve been for the past couple weeks. School is ac gonna kill me, I swear to the gods. But I can’t really complain, it’s not that bad. I bought a robot hamster a while back… Idk what the point of this note was, happy March.

· · ────── ·𖥸· ────── · ·

Approx 1.3k words

CONTENT: None.

Barty Crouch (Sr): Average Middle-Aged Man Experience

Let’s all be straight with ourselves, Bartemius Crouch (Senior) has no idea who this artist is, or what they do. He knows you’re a fan of them, and he knows a few of the words to certain choruses, but he has no idea. And he doesn’t care to. His preferred ‘concerts’ are closer to the philharmonics than the modern music you like, and who can blame him? He may have lived through the Rock N Roll era, but he cares as much about Elvis as he does the colour of his coffee cups; that is to say, not at all. But you try being in your sixties with an inappropriately young girlfriend and not understanding any of her language or the things she likes. He’ll take you to the concert, of course he will, but don’t expect some strobe light-induced hysteria. You’ll be taken care of, but there will be no merchandise, and certainly no alcohol. If you’re good, and it finishes before half eleven, he’ll take you to his gentleman’s club, though. But not too late, he has golf in the morning.

Fenrir Greyback: Finna be in Pit (Bro)

If you aren’t imagining some sort of death metal when picturing Fenrir in concert, you’re probably on the wrong wavelength. Nothing about him is even vaguely interested in the music, he’ll just appear for the vibe, and an excuse to get absolutely hammered on a Tuesday night. Unless you need to be sitting/in an accessibility area, he’s getting standing room. It’s more fun, he’ll tell you, and everyone in the seating area will be standing anyway. That being said, he’s surprisingly good at not pushing it, especially when it turns out the concert is a week before the full moon and he has to buy himself earplugs. Bright pink, they were the cheapest. He’ll help you source merchandise beforehand, because you are not paying merch prices. If you get him pregamed enough he might even let you put something in his hair. Go for pink bows, it’ll match his earplugs. Pretty solid concert companion overall, minus the fact he’s too tall to go through the security gate and has to get patted down.

Rufus Scrimgeour: Reasonable Effort

Barty’s cluelessness mixed with Fenrir’s enthusiasm creates a new entity, the Rufus. He doesn’t care, at all, nor does he bother to listen to any attempts to explain your newfound obsession; but what he does care about is making you happy, and how does one go about making a music fan happy? Taking them to the artist’s debut London concert is probably a pretty good start. He’ll get solidly decent seats, nothing over the top or attention drawing, and nothing that can solidly prove he was actually there. If you promise not to put it on him he’ll buy you merchandise, but he is not spending that amount of money on subpar spirits, you may drink at home. If you’re close enough to his office, he’ll just get a hotel and bring his bag with him, but only if you promise not to tell anyone where he took you. Bonus points for being the only one to get you there perfectly on-time and still have time to wrangle the merch queues.

Lord Voldemort: Better luck taking an actual snake

Now, all of the other HPQDs have the inherent ability to truly, actually care about you. They love you, in their own ways, and they want you to be happy and have fun because- You want people you love to succeed… Right? But let’s be honest with ourselves, for once, Tommy does not love you. He cares about you, very deeply, he adores your presence, but canonically? He can’t actually even experience love. And, of course, this can cause a bit of tension. No, he is not taking you to the concert, you can take your friends and get absolutely plastered. He’ll make sure the lot of you have an enjoyable trip: access passes, whatever you want, but he will be having an enjoyable evening by himself at home. He will still drop you off and pick you up, though, he isn’t risking the idea of you getting lost in a big city and having to be unceremoniously rescued.

Igor Karkaroff: More of a Fan than You

And now, boys and girls, we come to Igor Karkaroff. Born girl dad, commander of teenaged celebrities, and a bigger fan of wherever you’re supposed to be going than you ever will be. It isn’t that he tries to one-up you (he stopped that years ago), it’s that every person gets one embarrassing hobby in their lifetime, and his is an unashamed kinning for American pop stars, apparently. Rest assured it’ll be him up at 2am on Ticketmaster, and not you. You won’t know which seats are the best- Gods forbid you get standing room- And the artist is only doing two shows in Eastern Europe. No prizes for guessing where*. He’ll pretend he only listens ironically, but we all know he doesn’t. He won’t do anything stupid like get a giant sign to bring with you, but he will make sure you know all the lyric before you go; you are not embarrassing him by not knowing the choruses (chori?) again.

Bonus: Who is their favourite artist?

Barty : Johnny Cash (But it’s a secret)

He knows, he knows. He grew up in the 40s and 50s, so he remembers some of Cash’s first songs being released as a young man - He was a young man once, shocker. He doesn’t even have anything to say about it, he just appreciates a baritone. Barty doesn’t necessarily believe in God, he just likes Cash’s gospel albums. He will not go near any of the “rolly nonsense” (rock), but you can find him playing Ring of Fire every so often.

Rufus: John Cage (4.33)

For those of you who didn’t watch Horrible Histories growing up, 4.33 is four and a half minutes of musicians pretending to play instruments. It’s five minutes of silence. It’s not that he doesn’t like music, it’s that it irritates him. Strings are too harsh, brass is annoying, and if he hears one more British artist fake an American accent he is going to scream. He really just does not care. If he’s in a good mood he’ll let you play your music, as long as it’s not that godforsaken death metal.

L.V: Spotify meditation music

Specifically the forest sounds

Contrary to belief, being the Dark Lord of a new magical empire is, actually, kind of stressful. With the war won, it’s more of a bureaucratic position than anything else, and that means a hell of a lot of time staring at paperwork and wishing he was somewhere else. And so, you introduce him to those AI generated Spotify playlists- The ones with weird names, like “sexy ironing mix”- You know what I mean. He gets really into green noise, maybe it’s the snake thing? If he buys either a heat lamp or a fan from wizard Amazon, just say nothing. But please draw the line at bringing leaves in the house.

Igor: Taylor Swift

Yes, it’s weird. He knows it’s weird, leave him alone. It’s probably your fault for introducing him to her. The students think it’s hilarious, but are entirely sworn to secrecy- You know what? She’s totally banned. Curse on her name. It is shockingly easy to find things for assorted presents, though, just get him a vinyl he doesn’t have. Yes, you will get tickets to ERAs, and it will be beautiful. Do not doubt him again.

*Budapest and Prague, obviously.

HPQD: Birthdays

‘Sometimes in the journey you can forget the purpose of the trip.’ Me, rn, trying to sound fancy.

MASTERPOST

 ────── ·𖥸· ────── · ·

It’s my birthday on an undisclosed Libra date (wish me happy birthday pls I need the attention), and so I present to you this post, because I haven’t done a QD in MONTHS. And as much as I love Greggie… Hot werewolf man. That’s it.

Requests and other funnies are comings, this was just for the sillies.

 ────── ·𖥸· ────── · ·

CONTENT: Not much, for once. Mentions of sex in Fenrir's paragraph (because of course), LV being a toxic (overly controlling etc).

INFO- Each DILF has a birthday quality rating and a best gift given rating. Be underwhelmed.

Approx 1k words: Very lil pookie baby.

Barty Crouch Sr- Traditional and Well-Planned:

He’s a simple man with very limited needs, in terms of it. In fact, you probably won’t even know when his birthday is until the day-of, and his sisters send him cards. That being said, your birthday is a completely different game. It’s easiest for him to show affection through material gifts, so expect flowers, jewellery, and anything that you’ve had your eye on over the course of the year may mysteriously appear in a gift basket at some point during the day. Barty will go through all the motions of the birthday, he’ll take you for dinner, then the theatre, and the day after you’ll have a small family gathering. He has it arranged very far in advance, he likes to be planned. It becomes your little tradition, and you’re oddly alright with that.

Birthday Rating: 6/10 - Solid, non-spontaneous.

Best Gift: That pair of overly expensive shoes you swore you didn’t need and he told you he wouldn’t buy… He still bought them. 7/10: -3 points for lying.

Fenrir Greyback- Woodland Chaos:

Do you remember participating in/ watching kids organise things for Mother’s Day? This exact vibe. He’s not very good at remembering small things: what to bring home from the shops, which day it is, that sort of thing. He’ll get the date right, but the day wrong. Cue panic when he realises your birthday is today, and not tomorrow. But, living in a forest and being a canonic pile of muscle has its advantages. He’ll hunt a few deer, maybe steal a cow from one of the farms a few miles out and you’ll have a lovely, if slightly meat-central, birthday barbeque. It is very rushed and something will be forgotten, but it’s very sweet. He does remember to get your presents well in advance, though.

Birthday Rating: 4/10- Buy this man a calendar, please. Points for getting your gifts, though.

Best Gift: Birthday sex. My man goes all out. 100+/10.

Rufus Scrimgeour- Money buys Happiness:

Let’s not forget Rufus is making bank as Minister. Let’s also not forget this man lives to get you whatever you want, whenever you want it. And what does a princess who has everything receive for her birthday? It started as whatever you wanted, but when you, like any self-respecting individual involved with an extraordinarily wealthy man, refused to take his money, it became an extended weekend trip to an undisclosed area of Europe. He’s Minister for Magic, and that comes with a certain level of international respect, especially as the famed War Minister. And so, you get a little trip to do some shopping, he’ll get a hotel with soap which has a higher net worth than you do, and when your next birthday comes around he’ll fight with you again over letting him buy you a present.

Birthday Rating: It’s a free trip to somewhere that isn’t GB- 10/10.

Best Gift: Cultural street food. A quiet night underneath street lighting, sitting in a park, with nothing really to say. A romantic, simple date. 8/10- It’s a coin flip whether or not you get food poisoning.

Lord Voldemort- Sweet or Creepy?:

We can be perfectly honest with ourselves, this is a judgement-free space… Tommy is creepy, he’s creepy as a kid, he’s creepy as a snake-talkin’ teenage hoodlum, and he’s creepy as a snake-lookin’ adult hoodlum. Isn’t that why we love him? You have, and always will have, guards with you at any time you’re not in the house, and this includes in the gardens, he’s not taking any chances. What this means is that he has two, or maybe even three, loyal, skilled men to watch over you. Anything you look at, or touch, or even mention in passing, will be recorded down and probably, eventually bought- Kind of like Barty, but in a depersonalised, slightly violating way. Your birthday dinner is about as cold and unfeeling as most Death Eater meetings are, but you get alcohol and attention, so who are you really to complain? As Dark Lady, there is a point where your personal life becomes a state affair, and this is one of them. But, if you’re good, he’ll give you a little picnic- Just the two of you, and maybe the children. It’s sweet, and a reminder that somewhere in him, there’s a heart which beats.

Birthday Rating (state affair): 3/10- I mean, who’s really complaining about free alcohol and wearing a pretty dress? +1 points for getting catering.

Birthday Rating (personal life): 9/10- Thought is put into it. It is sweet and simple, and you can forget your duty for just a moment.

Best Gift: A live Guinea pig (or other rodent of your choice- See the pets episode). 9/10- He feels bad about a snake eating the last one, so you get Nibbles. Nibbles does as his name suggests, and nibbles you when you first handle him. -1 point.

Igor Karkaroff- The Feast:

High Master does, at its very name suggests, require an awful lot of work, especially out of class time. He could work all day (not that he does) and still have more to do on overtime. His office is quite comfortable, though, so he shan’t particularly complain about it. That being said, living in an isolated mountain-castle in the middle of nowhere reduces the chances he’ll take you to a nice restaurant and a luxury hotel- There is no Hogsmeade equivalent for Durmstrang, remember- So, what do you get? A feast. You get a feast. And I don’t mean a tiny pizza slice and a fruit cup. Boars will be found, honey-mead will run like water, and there will be at least 4 days off for everyone to recover from the hangover. You are the best teacher this school has ever had, after all, you deserve a treat.

Birthday Rating: 10/10- (He has the Planning Committee organise and arrange the entire thing and then puts his name on it. It’s alright, you’ll get them a card).

Best Gift: More robes and/or pelt blankets- 6/10. It might sound a bit boring, but you do live in a literal mountain landscape, so it’s quite practical. +2 points for cosiness.
