Alpha Pix is an ultra-low power spatial compute platform developed by Cogni Trax. It uses less power than [[waveguide]]-based augmented reality displays. Alpha Pix is designed like a smartphone camera. It uses light from the ambient scene in the user’s surroundings thereby not requiring power needed for new photon generation and only consumes about 70mW of power. The Alpha Pix CMOS display panel is designed like a smartphone camera, where the imaging lens is integrated directly on the CMOS panel. Alpha Pix uses a [[catadioptric combiner]], which allows a compact folded optical path that enables very high optical efficiency ranging from 25-75%, thereby reducing the power needed.

Their Alpha Pix platform demonstrates a world first catadioptric combiner in a thin form factor for AR smart glasses. Alpha Pix controls per-pixel transparency in the virtual image plane, so virtual objects and holograms in a black color can be realized. These black holograms can hard-edge occlude physical objects in the real background scene, making content visibility possible even in direct sun-lit environments.
