EPIC EUROPEAN PHOTONICS ASSOCIATION VISITS AUBOR OPTICS IN ZHONGSHAN
EPIC ‘’European Photonics Association‘’ visited Aubor’s Zhongshan facility, exploring our advanced polymer optics capabilities and discussing future collaborations in sensor, medical imaging, and AR/VR markets.
Recently, the EPIC (European Photonics Industry Consortium) delegation visited Aubor Optoelectronics’ Zhongshan facility, marking another milestone in Aubor’s journey of connecting with global industry leaders. Following our participation in the 2025 China International Optoelectronic Exposition (CIOE), this visit represents a significant step in strengthening Aubor’s role in the global optics ecosystem.
Exploring Innovation, Discussing the Future of Photonics
As one of the world’s leading photonics organizations, EPIC brings together top companies and research institutes from optics, lasers, sensors, and semiconductors.
During their visit, the EPIC team explored Aubor’s cutting-edge R&D and manufacturing capabilities in sensor optics, medical imaging, and AR/VR technologies.
The delegation had an in-depth look at Aubor’s core processes, including:
High-precision injection molding – ensuring consistent quality from design to mass production
SPDT diamond turning – enabling complex freeform and high-precision prototypes
Optical coating (PVD / IAD) – delivering superior performance for sensing and imaging applications
Integrated design-to-manufacturing workflow – from optical design and tooling to final assembly and delivery
EPIC members were particularly interested in Aubor’s expertise in polymer optics, especially PIR Fresnel lenses and millimeter-wave radar lens modules. These solutions are essential for next-generation applications such as smart homes, healthcare monitoring, and robotics.
Building a Bridge for Global Collaboration
Aubor’s leadership team and EPIC members engaged in insightful discussions on market trends and emerging technologies, focusing on:
The evolution of sensing technologies – from traditional infrared to millimeter-wave, LiDAR, and multimodal fusion
Rising demand for AR/VR and medical imaging – driving innovation in freeform and lightweight optical components
Cross-border collaboration – leveraging EPIC’s network to foster global partnerships and joint market development
This visit laid the foundation for future collaborations, enabling both sides to explore new opportunities in optical design, production, and innovation.
Rooted in Zhongshan, Connected to the World
With a mission to “Explore the Infinite Possibilities of Light,” Aubor is committed to bridging local manufacturing strength with global innovation needs.
The visit from EPIC not only showcased Aubor’s capabilities in sensor and high-end optics but also reinforced our vision of creating a worldwide network of trusted partners.
Moving forward, Aubor will continue to invest in advanced materials research, precision manufacturing technologies, and global market expansion, positioning itself as a key player in driving optical innovation.
