Group 1 - The core point of the article is that Maita Lansi, the world's first design-house to mass-produce both far-infrared and near-infrared super lenses, has completed a multi-million A+ round financing led by Xiaomi's strategic investment, with participation from Shunwei Capital, Chengmei Capital, and Shanghai Angel Association [2] - Maita Lansi, established in Shenzhen in 2020, focuses on the "super surface" optical sector, utilizing semiconductor processes to compress traditional lenses into nano-level flat surfaces, achieving lightweight, low-cost, and high yield [3] - The company has built a 6,000 square meter mass production line in Huzhou, with a monthly capacity of millions of units, delivering infrared temperature measurement, security, and facial recognition lenses in bulk, while samples for visible light mobile phones, automotive, and beam splitter devices are set to be released next year [3] Group 2 - The CEO of Maita Lansi, Tan Fengze, stated that the funds will be used for three main purposes: expanding the Huzhou production line by adding two 12-inch nano-imprinting chambers to triple the monthly production capacity of infrared lenses; investing in reliability verification for visible light mobile phone main cameras and automotive ADAS lenses, with mass production expected in Q2 next year; and developing adjustable super surface optical computing chips, with an initial demo set to launch next year [4] - Xiaomi's strategic investment director, Gao Xue, emphasized that super lenses are a core path for reducing thickness, cost, and weight in consumer electronics optics, and Maita Lansi has proven its design and mass production capabilities in the infrared field, with the team's nano-imprinting technology being directly applicable to visible light [5] - The founder of Shandao Venture Capital, Wang Shuai, noted that recent government policies have highlighted super surface optics as a key common technology, and Maita Lansi's achievement of a closed loop from design software to mass production in three years aligns with the government's vision for "hard technology + true mass production" [6]
