Extended-depth-of-focus (EDOF) meta-lenses use engineered metasurfaces to keep scenes sharp across a much larger depth range than traditional lenses. By extending focus without bulky mechanics, they enable compact, robust optical systems for machine vision, 3D sensing, and precision inspection in demanding industrial and embedded applications.

Oblate Optics has joined the NVIDIA Inception Program, bringing together GPU-accelerated computation and state-of-the-art deep learning to unlock new frontiers in metastructured optics. This partnership accelerates the scalable design of advanced optical components, enabling breakthroughs in imaging, sensing, and defense. As part of the NVIDIA ecosystem, Oblate Optics is poised to deliver transformative optical technologies that redefine what's possible across industries.

Oblate Optics has been chosen as one of just 10 startups for the prestigious Luminate NY Accelerator. With $100K in funding and access to Rochester’s world-class optics ecosystem, Oblate is accelerating the commercialization of advanced meta-optics and imaging solutions—reinforcing its role as a leader in photonics innovation.
