JBD Launches "Roadrunner I" Polychrome Projector, Setting a New Benchmark for AR Color Displays with a 2.5μm Pixel Pitch
Roadrunner I offers 10,160 PPI pixel density and ultra-low 90 mW power consumption, enabling lightweight, high-performance AR glasses, now available for sampling.
- On Dec. 22, 2025, JBD launched the 'Roadrunner I' polychrome projector in Shanghai and opened customer sampling.
- The company says pixel-scaling drove Roadrunner's development, shrinking pixel pitch from 4 µm to 2.5 µm to achieve 10,160 PPI, a major MicroLED scaling advance, JBD CEO Li Qiming said.
- The projector's optical re‑architecture compresses the light path to 7.8 mm, a 35% reduction from 11.99 mm, with MTF 0.4 at 200 lp/mm and 100:1 contrast ratio.
- The miniaturization enables truly lightweight AR/AI smart glasses, with packaging shrinking to 3.2 mm³ and 0.5 grams, roughly 50% smaller than Hummingbird I, JBD stated.
- JBD will expand the Roadrunner product line into broader FOV and higher‑PPD products, and together with the Hummingbird series, these lines are expected to accelerate innovation in the AR/AI smart device industry.
