About

eyeo is an Eindhoven-based nanophotonics startup commercializing color-splitting image sensor technology (NCOS) that separates incoming light into red, green, and blue components and guides every photon directly to its target pixel, rather than discarding ~70% of light through traditional color filters 12. The company targets consumer, industrial, XR, smart city, and mobile imaging markets, with applications spanning low-light photography, machine vision, and next-generation 3D-stacked CMOS sensors 23. The €40M Series A announced May 11, 2026 was led by Innovation Industries with participation from existing investors imec.xpand, Invest-NL Deep Tech Fund, QBIC fund, High-Tech Gründerfonds, and Brabant Development Agency; the round benefits from European Union support under the InvestEU Fund and brings total funding to €55M 123.
