This is relevant, this is the exact kind of applications the POET OI is suited for, integrated photonics circuits.

Most of us here have ignored the collaboration announcement with Vanguard Automation a few weeks ago. That announcement is very important because of this bit: 

POET Technologies and Vanguard Automation will initially collaborate to integrate the Micro-Lenses on POET’s LightBarTMproducts, aimed at AI-ML accelerators and bio-sensing applications to validate power efficiency improvements and the viability of chip-scale, wafer-level manufacturing using Micro-Lenses.

Adding those micro-lenses to the OI platform is another step toward putting an OI on everyone's wrist.
