HoloVAM uses holographic projection to cure full 3D structures at once. No support structures. No bulky optics. No light wasted.
Why HoloVAM
HoloVAM is designed to direct light to where it matters. Instead of adding optical overhead, the system keeps the projection path simple and efficient, with software-defined control over how energy is delivered into the volume.
Light is redirected instead of blocked, so nearly 90% of the laser power goes into the part instead of a beam dump. That gives you faster prints, lower power demand, and more room to scale.
There are no refractive lenses in the projection path. Focus, correction, and adaptation happen in software on the spatial light modulator, which means less alignment work and fewer parts that drift out of spec.
No index-matching bath required. The system stays compact, lightweight, and straightforward to use, with less setup, less handling, and fewer things that get in the way.
Features
Centimetre-scale parts in under 30 seconds. Move from idea to physical part in minutes instead of hours.
Holographic projection can maintain dose integrity through scattering media, opening the door to cell-laden hydrogels, organoids, and tissue scaffolds at useful cell densities.
Vial curvature, refractive index shifts, and other aberrations can be corrected computationally. Better algorithms directly improve the system without a hardware redesign.
Compact and lightweight, with a small footprint and minimal infrastructure. Easy to deploy, simple to integrate, and practical outside controlled lab environments.

Applications
Build parts in seconds instead of hours and move through design cycles fast enough to matter.
Volumetric curing is gentler on cell-laden hydrogels and scaffolds because the exposure is short and uniform, without the repeated mechanical stress of layering.
No lens stacks, no bath, no fragile optical train. That simplicity makes HoloVAM a stronger fit for industrial settings and other places where conventional optics are too delicate.
Compact, lightweight, and software-defined. When size and mass are constrained, HoloVAM is a much more practical architecture for on-demand fabrication.
