About Us
- Triad Light Innovation (TLI) is a group of passionate and professional people who have been working for more than a decade in solving optical problems and building optical systems for various research and education institutions in the world.
- At Triad Light Innovation, we adhere to the three fundamental virtues of Light Triad, and we focus on three core elements of optics—light source, light field, and light detection. Each is indispensable and works in harmony to achieve a unified system of light properties.
- At Triad Light Innovation, we envision a future where optics break free from physical constraints and step into the realm of programmability, becoming more software-defined. Through this vision, we are pioneering Programoptics — a revolutionary approach that makes optical systems simpler, more adaptable, and scalable, aligning perfectly with the growing demands of the digital age and AI-driven environments.
- Our work reflects the complementary nature of these principles, and applying them to the systems of light. Together, we advance optical engineering toward programmable optics, unlocking light’s full potential.

Our Philosophy
- Triad Light is the inversion of Light Triad, where 'Light' suggests TLI is a company advancing optical technology.
- Triad refers to a triad chord, which is the most stable chord in music theory and the basis for the development of all other chords. Each of the three tones in a triad chord has its own role and duty, working closely with each other.
- Light Triad is a psychological term describing positive personality traits which include three foundational elements:
- Treating people as ends in themselves, not merely as means. (Kantianism)
- Valuing the dignity and worth of each individual. (Humanism)
- Believing in the fundamental goodness of humans. (Faith in Humanity)
These
are the values and the mindsets we aim to cultivate and take root in our organization, and the attitudes we apply with our partnerships.
