Spotlight On High-Speed & Scientific Cameras
HD Thermal Imaging For Defense Research And Test Ranges

Infrared target signature research and target tracking place substantial technical demands on thermal imaging cameras, as well as the researchers using those cameras. FLIR develops thermal imaging systems to overcome challenges on both fronts. 

Portable XRD/XRF For Cultural Heritage Using Deep Cooled CCD Camera

There are lots of scientific techniques for establishing the authenticity of art. One growing application is the use of X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), the analysis of a small region of an object to measure mineralogy and chemistry.

Quantitative CMOS Technology

This white paper explains the different approaches, properties, and shortcomings of a photon number resolving camera based on semiconductor technology.

Industry Insights
Is A DIY Microscope For You?

Whether modifying existing instrumentation or building a new tool from the ground up, a meticulous process is as critical as the functional result.

On-Demand Laser Cut Gaskets And Masks

Abrisa Technologies provides in-house, on-demand, fast-turn laser cutting of high-performance materials used as gaskets and environmental seals for glass components interfaced with metals, plastics, paints, and more.

What Parameters Of My Laser Do I Need To Measure?

When you purchase a new laser, it always comes with a long list of specifications. Some parameters might not be useful to you, but others might be important to your application.
