TØNSBERG, Norway -- 16 June, 2026 -- poLight ASA
(https://www.polight.com/home/default.aspx) (OSE: PLT) today announced the
addition of a 13.6mm and a 19.7mm lenses to its MLens® off-the-shelf (OTS)
portfolio, offering even more focal lengths, while retaining the speed, power
efficiency, and reliability of the MLens® platform. Based on the company's
ultrafast, ultralow power consuming TLens® tunable optics technology, these
new lenses enable design engineers to rapidly set and change object/focal
distances to accommodate different scenarios. Product samples, a supporting
evaluation kit plus several live and static demos will be on display in our
booth 10022 North Hall at Automate, June 22-25 in Chicago, Illinois. For more

Yole Group estimates the industrial machine vision market to reach USD $7.8
billion with a CAGR of 2.1 per cent by 2029. The analyst firm also projects
that the global humanoid robot market will reach USD $51 billion by 2035, with
a CAGR of 55%. All three applications require advanced, AI-driven imaging
requirements combined with ultrafast, ultralow power consuming and robust
autofocus lens.

The new lenses deliver key performance capabilities commonly found in AI-based
imaging applications including XR smart glasses, micro-display optics, smart
machine vision cameras, robotics, barcode readers and high-speed automation
demanding constant field of view focusing from infinity to macro.

* Larger aperture for higher light throughput
* Expanded optical range and flexibility
* Improved optical quality at scale
* System-level integration advantages

The new lenses join the 6.6mm and 7.5mm MLens® portfolio options, sharing a
common mechanical and electrical interface allowing end users and installers
to select or change lenses easily.

| "Our industrial and machine vision customers face rapidly growing AI-based
| imaging challenges in shrinking design windows," said Dr. Øyvind Isaksen,
| CEO of poLight ASA. "The MLens® portfolio provides a standard, "off the
| shelf" product that delivers TLens® performance without having to design a
| full custom lens, enabling OEMs to quickly ramp their advanced technology."
| 

The MLens® portfolio includes a full support platform and ecosystem including
a TLens® EVK, enabling easy control via a USB connection to a PC or Mac
computer. Image Quality Labs (https://www.imagequalitylabs.com/) offers a
Raspberry Pi system available on DigiKey
