For those who are watching the potential for LWLG involvement in the LIDAR space, from what I have seen so far it is with the FMCW LIDAR approach in the 1550 nm space, where to-date there are some present cost disadvantages and engineering obstacles to overcome, for which silicon photonics may ultimately be the solution.

I am presently sucking wind on my MVIS investment. Dollar-wise I have around $5 in LWLG to every $1 in MVIS. For better or worse, BlackRock disclosed last evening they now hold 6.5% equity interest in Microvision. Both are of somewhat similar risk profiles, and my weighting reflects my own subjective opinion on my personal risk/reward investing decisions.

For the LIDAR revenue potential here for whatever technology ends up dominating this competitive space, just consider there will be at least two LIDAR units per vehicle, a forward and rear-facing LIDAR unit at a minimum.

Here is a post from the Microvision board with comparative specs among the various LIDAR solutions, to include the recently announced AEVA Aeries II

AEVA Aeries II version employs a silicon photonics chip, and it has very competitive specs, although the Microvision solution still have a point cloud density, and FPS advantage, and possibly a cost advantage:

Note: I am not sure if they have any product in the chart I have shared.

A nicer article highlighting Intel's Silocon Photonics plant in New Mexico, as part of their go-forward strategy and this article also highlights their likely need for further acquisitions....
