Nanophotonic color splitting technology for high sensitivity imaging
About eyeo
eyeo is a Dutch nanophotonic imaging company founded in 2024 at High Tech Campus Eindhoven (with sensor design in Antwerp), spun from imec. Its proprietary NCOS (Nanophotonic Color Splitting) platform replaces absorptive color filters with nanoscale light-splitting structures on CMOS-compatible sensors, improving light sensitivity, resolution and color accuracy for mobile, industrial, XR and smart-city imaging. In May 2026 eyeo raised a €40 million Series A led by Innovation Industries, with imec.xpand, Invest-NL, QBIC, HTGF and BOM, bringing total funding to about €55 million to move from R&D into commercial production and OEM partnerships.
