Advancements in Reflective Microscope Objectives

Key Takeaways:  Reflective microscope objectives are revolutionary in optical design, addressing challenges such as chromatic aberration and enabling diffraction-limited performance across a wide wavelength range.  Their mirror-based construction reduces chromatic aberration and extends working distances, while maintaining stability and precision through uniform thermal coefficients. The two-mirror Schwarzschild objective exemplifies meticulous alignment for optimal performance. These […]

SWIR Camera Surveillance
SWIR Camera Surveillance

Key Takeaways SWIR Camera Surveillance uses SWIR light to achieve superior SWIR imaging in conditions where visible light fails. SWIR light penetrates fog and smoke better than visible light, providing clearer images. SWIR imaging is unaffected by heat haze and atmospheric variations, ensuring consistent quality. SWIR cameras use sensors like InGaAs or MCT, often integrating […]

Optics for LiDAR and Sensing

Key Takeaways Optics for LiDAR and sensing are crucial for a LiDAR system, which uses a laser to measure distances by calculating the time it takes for light to return—essentially answering what is LiDAR. LiDAR technology has advanced from its early use in satellite tracking to applications in mapping and autonomous vehicles. Modern LiDAR systems […]
