New Optics & Photonics Products

Collimators/Focusers focus light exiting optical fiber.

Assemblies provide collimated beam of desired diameter or focus light to one spot. Antireflection-coated lenses are diffraction-limited and are capable of achieving spot sizes as small as a few microns in diameter. Products may be used in pairs to couple input and output light of optical devices and are available in three wavelength ranges: 350-600, 600-1050, and 1050-1600 nm. Effective focal...

Image Sensor/Camera suits mobile applications.

Model MI-0343 VGA-size CMOS stand-alone image sensor operates at 40 mW at 15 fps. Model MI-SOC-0343 System-on-a-Chip sensor camera operates at 85 mW at 15 fps. Both offer VGA resolution of 640 H x 480 V and can be programmed to output progressive scan images up to 30 fps. SoC can be programmed to output images in 8-bit CCIR 656 or 565 RGB format. It performs color recovery, color correction,...

Protection Plates increase clarity of welding lenses.

Molded Protection Plates for SpeedglasÃ-® 9000 and Utility series of auto-darkening welding lenses offer impact protection and are curved to match curve of lens cassette. Packaging eliminates need for protective film, making replacement of plates faster, and eliminating possibility of welders not remembering to remove film.

High-resolution Magellan(TM), incorporated in GSMÃ-® Platform, captures most large components in single 60 mm field of view to accelerate throughput. It includes front, side, and on-axis lighting and offers pixel resolution of 1024 x 1024 to facilitate small part feature recognition. Lighting intensity is consistent across viewable area. Lighting calibration is performed on machine,...

MITIGATING OPTICAL SUPPLY CHAIN RISKS

This white paper provides an overview into mitigating the optic supply chain, common issues and proposed solutions.

Digital Cameras offer 12 bits per color.

Model CD 300FX 1.4 Megapixel, cooled, color camera provides imaging suitable for documentation and publication. Model DC 350FX 1.4 Megapixel, cooled, monochrome camera offers near-infrared sensitivity for analysis and quantification. Both PC-compatible units feature quantum efficiency in excess of 50% from 400-750 nm. Peltier cooling offers exposure times up to 600 seconds while eliminating...

Color Camera incorporates Sony's ExView(TM) technology.

KTC-240CCE CCTV Camera provides solution for areas where lighting is difficult to control. It offers 480 lines of resolution, 0.02 lux sensitivity, and digital signal processing. Automatic backlight compensation prevents foreground objects from becoming silhouetted against bright backgrounds. High-speed electronic shutter compensates for bright sunlight and low-light environments. Digital...
