I don't know anything, but my guess would be MicroMax. They've been on the Lidar for a while. They are the best selling mobile phone in India.
Their Slogan: Nuts. Guts. Glory. (sounds like they're MicroVision investors already.)
I don't have anything specific that points me to MicroMax for this deal, except that it makes sense. Sony and MicroMax play nicely together, it's a HUGE market, it would be exceptionally well served by PicoP -- and has a market audience that would be extremely receptive to it.
MicroMax also makes a LOT of phones, and a lot of new designs for phones.
I have been convinced that they are producing a lot of phones in relatively small lots (40+ new phones annually?) They are the world's 10th largest smartphone maker.
