About NexOptic Technology Corp.

NexOptic is developing technologies relating to imagery and light concentration applications. Utilizing Blade Optics™, its suite of optical technologies, the Company aims to increase aperture sizes within given depth constraints of various imaging and non-imaging optical applications. Blade Optics™ refers to NexOptic’s lens designs, algorithms and mechanics which vary from patented, patent-pending and includes all of the Company’s intellectual property and know how.

Earlier this year, NexOptic completed its proof-of-concept digital telescope prototype that utilizes a patented Blade Optics™ technology, other optical elements and electronic components. The prototype is intended to demonstrate the marketable features of Blade Optics™ and its potential to serve as a platform to be used in various optical applications.

Benefits of Blade Optics™ Technology

NexOptic believes that Blade Optics™ has the potential to breakdown many of the limitations associated with conventional lens stacks:

• Aperture size: Blade Optics™ may allow the aperture-to-depth ratio to be increased in depth-limited optical devices to permit increased resolution compared to conventional optical devices with similar depth.
• Compactness: Decreasing the depth of the lens stack would create the possibility of more compact and practical imaging devices.

NexOptic trades on the OTCQX under the symbol “NXOPF,” on the TSX Venture as “NXO,” on Frankfurt as “E301” and Berlin as “E301.” More information is available at www.nexoptic.com.
