Atendee SilkyZen states "Intel is going to be the production partner for eMagin" -

Well, really surprised that after the Intel presentation this didn't move much more, really strange.
At about 3:30pm PT yesterday the Intel guy opened the OLED in AR/VR session with the comment along the lines that they see OLED microdisplays as the future display engine tech for AR/VR, followed by "here is an example from our technology partner Emagin", either I misheard or Intel is going to be the production partner for Emagin.

DISPLAY DEVICE HAVING INTEGRATED METAMATERIAL LENS
[0002] Augmented reality device technology, including augmented reality headsets and the like, is an area of emerging interest. For such devices, it may be desirable to have a display device that provides red-green-blue (RGB) colors (e.g., full color) in a compact package with high brightness, collimated light, high contrast, low power, and low manufacturing costs to provide high quality products for users.
[0033] As discussed, FIG. 2A illustrates an augmented reality system implementing a micro-display with an integrated metamaterial lens

1/28/2021 eMagin Majority Shareholder Stillwater seeks valuation of outstanding Preferred Shares
The Series B Preferred Stock, when issued, was convertible into Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.75 per Share (the “Original Conversion Price”). Based on information disclosed in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 12, 2020, there were 67,499,602 Shares deemed issued and outstanding as of October 31, 2020 and 7,545,333 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. The Shares and ownership reported in this Amendment No. 18 reflect the Original Conversion Price; however, Stillwater and Ginola are currently reviewing all sales and issuances by the Issuer. Such review could result in a lower conversion price resulting in additional shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. Stillwater and Ginola believe the conversion ratio is not greater than $0.50, due to the Issuer’s offering of Common Stock to an institutional investor at $0.50 per share on April 11, 2019, as reported in the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 12, 2019. In addition, on January 27, 2021 the Issuer communicated to Stillwater that the conversion price is likely less than $0.50, due to certain sales of Common Stock at lower prices under the equity program created pursuant to the At The Market Offering Agreement dated November 22, 2019, as amended, by and between eMagin Corporation and H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC. Stillwater and Ginola have requested clarification from the Issuer regarding the applicable conversion price for the Series B Preferred but have not received any further information as of the time of filing this report.

Intel clearly has eMagin in its sights as evidenced by the SID Display Week 2018 Session 40 presentation with (eMagin) micro OLED as a "key enabler" to AR/VR . Intel's interest also extends to complementary Optics company Metalenz .
The capital structures look to be rearranging with Intel's divestment of Vuzix and subsequent investment in Metalenz . At the same time eMagin's Majority Shareholder adjusted their investment in eMagin to less than 10% of outstanding common shares and seeks clarification of Preferred valuation .
Good day fellow SPAC investors. I am back with another company trading close to Nav that I think has immense potential to find the next Palantir. I am hoping to generate some discussion around this and get others thoughts on this company. As always, I am by no means an expert, so do your own due diligence.
NSH - NavSight Holdings, Inc. - 10.21
Why I invested: The leadership of this SPAC is dominated by multiple people who have spent their careers working in national security as well as providing differentiated expertise and technology to U.S. government customers in support of their national security, intelligence, and defense missions.They have worked at top government agencies in this area including the NSA, have grown businesses in the space and have invested in many others. In doing this, they obviously have developed an extensive network of contacts and relationships which will provide substantial sources of acquisition opportunities. They should have a lot of insight into finding an ideal SPAC that will hopefully be successful and provide a great return to investors. For me, this is a company that could invest in the next Palantir and I am hopeful that it will be something that I can hold long after the merger. My guess is that this will be in the cybersecurity space based on the leadership’s past experience. I have little doubt that they won’t find an ideal target as this is such a niche market that other SPACs are not targeting and the management team has so much experience in it.
IPOSize: $230M
Target: US government national security, intelligence and defence vendors in the tech space.

Hi everyone, I’m considering purchasing the Mantech Lasertech Desktop Co2 laser later this month and there is currently a 3 month waiting period in the UK for it. Before I commit does anyone have any experience with this company or with this laser? I like that it’s a UK based company, so I wouldn’t have to import it and they appear to have good customer support. They also give you training on the machine, when they install it. I want to use it for a mix of glass etching (they have a rotary axis included) and small wood signs.
Any response would be greatly appreciated.
