WESTBOROUGH, Mass. High-resolution display maker Kopin Corporation has received an initial $3 million production order for a new weapon sight module.
Bill Maffucci, Kopin's vice president/general manager of government and professional products, said in the company statement that the order for the module is for a new market and application; the current situation in Europe provides significant opportunities for follow-on orders, he stated.
According to the announcement, the weapon sight module gives the user a video "see-through" augmented reality capability, with the use of the company's CyberDisplay product and custom optics.
The production order specifies delivery of the products in 2023.
