Three well-known veterans of the imaging and photonics industry will join EO in expanding the company's imaging, photonics, and optics product families.

Jason Mulliner, formerly of National Instruments, has joined EO to direct its product line management and development efforts in 2007.

Jason will be located at EO's headquarters in Barrington, New Jersey.

Shawn Eaton, formerly of Stocker Yale, will join EO in March as Product Development Manager for illumination products. Shawn will be spearheading engineering and marketing efforts related to Edmund's illumination technology, including development of EO's Chameleos(TM) product line. She will be working closely with both R&D and Business Development to ensure that EO's illumination products continue to provide state-of-the-art solutions to customer needs. Shawn will be located in EO's New Hampshire facility.

Scott Sparrold will be joining EO's Pennsburg, PA manufacturing facility as a Senior Optical Engineer. A graduate of the University of Arizona Optical Sciences program, Scott has worked for Wavefront Research, Raytheon Missile Systems, Terabeam Labs, and Hughes Aircraft over his 15 year career in optical design.
