The CES Innovation Awards recognize products and services with outstanding design and engineering from among the many entries submitted by CES exhibitors worldwide.

In recent years, there has been significant development in displays that overlay virtual information onto real-world scenery, enabling the virtual expansion of the immediate environment. One notable device in this category is the glasses-type device known as "AR/MR glasses", which supports the display of Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR) content. These AR/MR glasses have attracted considerable attention and are expected to expand in the market as the next-generation device following smartphones.
With their functionality with various characteristics such as high refractive index, high transmittance, high flatness, and surface smoothness, the AGC’s glass substrates enable creation of high-performance AR/MR glasses.
