A beam splitter cube is a key component of a Polarizing Beam Splitter, also known as a polarization beam splitter or polarized beam splitter.
The Difference Between a Mirror and a Lens lies in their use of a reflective surface, with various types of mirrors available.
High precision optical tolerances are essential for ensuring the precise dimensions and quality of optical components.
Key Takeaways Optical systems designed with meticulous attention to field of view parameters. Analysis tools utilized to ensure optimal field of view performance. Optimization techniques employed to meet specified field of view requirements effectively. Maximizing Optical System Performance with Zemax At Avantier, we use Zemax for designing, analyzing, and optimizing optical systems, such as lenses, […]
Blurring is a significant source of image degradation in an imperfect imaging system. The optical system’s point spread function (PSF) describes the measure of blur in a given imaging system and is often used in image reconstruction or image recovery algorithms. Below in example of using inverse PSF to eliminate the barcode image degradation. Barcodes are […]
An optical drawing is a detailed plan that allows us to manufacture optical components according to a design and given specifications. When optical designers and engineers come up with a design, they condense it in an optical drawing that can be understood by manufacturers anywhere. ISO 10110 is the most popular standard for optical drawing. […]
Design for Manufacturing (DFM) Case Study: Objective Lens Design for Trapping and Imaging Single Atoms At Avantier we offer Design for Manufacturing (DFM services), optimizing product design with our extensive knowledge of manufacturing constraints, costs, and methods. Avantier Inc. received a request from a University Physics department to custom design a long working distance, high […]
For storage and transmission of large image files it is desirable to reduce the file size. For consumer-grade images this is achieved by lossy image compression when image details not very noticeable to humans are discarded. However, for scientific images discarding any image details may not be acceptable. Still, all the images, except completely random […]
Image Analysis of a 3D Image Several manufacturers sell 3D cameras which use 2D sensor arrays sensitive to the phase of reflected laser light. All of them spread laser light so that it permanently illuminates the complete scene of interest. Laser light is modulated synchronously with the pixel sensitivity. The phase of reflected laser light, […]
