eMagin Receives Defense Manufacturing Technology Achievement Award
HOPEWELL JUNCTION, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 6, 2018-- eMagin Corporation, or the Company, (NYSE American:EMAN), a leader in the development, design and manufacture of Active Matrix OLED microdisplays for high resolution imaging products, today announced that the Company, in a joint project with the U.S. Army Research, Development and Engineering Command and the Night Vision Electronic Sensors Directorate (NVESD), received the award for Enhancing Military Capability as part of the Defense Manufacturing Technology Achievement Awards.
This award recognizes work that eMagin conducted in collaboration with the Army under the ManTech program. The program’s objectives were to enable the affordable manufacture of full-color, high brightness, high resolution OLED microdisplays utilizing eMagin’s direct patterning technology, which improves luminance and efficiency critical for military applications. This program also established a domestic source for advanced backplane manufacturing for OLED deposition.
“This prestigious award reflects the work completed under a $5 million, multi-year project and underscores the importance of our longstanding relationship with the U.S. military to provide innovative OLED technology,” commented Andrew G. Sculley, CEO of eMagin. “Through this joint effort, we are now working with an on-shore foundry to develop the world’s most advanced display backplanes for significantly increased luminance and efficiency of our manufactured displays for a number of key military programs.”
