MicroVision supplying the display engines for new innovative
smartphone to be available in China

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Jun. 28, 2017–
MicroVision,
Inc.
(NASDAQ:MVIS), a leader in innovative ultra-miniature
projection display and sensing technology, today announced that its
PicoP® scanning engine for projected display is part of a new VOGA V
flagship smartphone just announced at Mobile World Congress Shanghai by
Ragentek.

Ragentek, a Chinese-based smartphone manufacturer and solution company
with top selling phones in China, India, Brazil and other countries,
placed a $6.7 million order with MicroVision in March 2017 for a
customized display engine, PSE-0403-103, to be embedded in its VOGA V
smartphone. Ragentek plans to begin pre-orders for the phone immediately
with delivery starting in July. To support Ragentek’s schedule,
MicroVision began shipping engines at the end of June and will begin
volume shipments in July.

“Ragentek has done an amazing job designing the VOGA V smartphone. It is
a sleek, high performance product that addresses the consumer’s desire
for slim, compact smartphones while at the same time maximizing
functionality for watching video with a large, projected image,” said
Alexander Tokman, President and Chief Executive Officer of MicroVision.
“As soon as we began talks with the Ragentek team it was clear that they
had a vision for the type of product they wanted to bring to market and
a plan for getting there. We are extremely pleased they chose to partner
with us and embed our PicoP scanning engine in the VOGA V.”

“When we came to MicroVision with our ideas for this product, their
ability to work their engine design around our product design was a key
factor in getting this product to market quickly. The mobile-first
features of PicoP scanning technology such as always-in-focus images,
lower power consumption and small module size were essential for us to
maintain our phone design and performance standards while still
extending the functionality to include high definition projected large
screen images,” said Jiaming Le, Chief Executive Officer of Ragentek.
“Our target customers want to have it all in a smartphone and today that
means a device that is optimized for video viewing. With this engine
from MicroVision, we are excited to offer a cutting-edge solution that
will give our customers an experience beyond what they might expect from
simply increasing the built-in screen a few centimeters.”

For its smartphone design, Ragentek required an electronics board layout
that varied from the standard form of MicroVision’s PSE-0403-101 display
engine. MicroVision was able to quickly design an engine that met the
requirements and could be manufactured by MicroVision’s supply chain
partner. This engine, PSE-0403-103, uses the same MEMS and ASICS1
components as the standard MicroVision PSE-0403-101 engine and has the
same performance characteristics, including an always-in-focus, high
definition image from a small, low power engine. The flexibility to meet
Ragentek’s specific design requirements together with the performance
that is optimized for a mobile product were key factors for MicroVision
winning this business.
