G&H - SPIE

G&H, a global leader in advanced photonics and optical solutions, will be exhibiting at SPIE Defense + Commercial Sensing (DCS), held from May 1-5, 2023, at the Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center in Orlando, Florida.

Attendees are invited to visit G&H at Booth #1111 to experience its latest sensing technology and discuss how its customized solutions can meet their specific needs.

"We are excited to be showcasing our latest sensing technology at the SPIE Defense + Commercial Sensing Show this May," said Stratos Kehayas, Chief Commercial Officer for G&H. "Our innovative solutions for sensing and communications in harsh environments will be on display, and we look forward to discussing with attendees the unique advantages that our technology offers."

Lens Systems

At the event, G&H will highlight its expertise in precision optics and components, including its wide range of optical coatings, assemblies, and subsystems. The company's Optical Systems Product Manager, JJ Conboy, will be present at the Aerospace and Defense demo area to offer an in-depth overview of the features and benefits of G&H's motorized zoom hardware with the latest SWIR product, FireAnt, and the MWIR NightCrawlIR lens, both on display.

Additionally, G&H will showcase its 10x continuous ruggedized MWIR zoom lens assembly integrated into a gimbal used in UAV and helicopter surveillance. This model effectively showcases the low-SWaP (size, weight, and power) integrated payload that is crucial for such applications.

Precision Optics

G&H's commitment to providing customers with high-quality build-to-print products that meet their specific needs while ensuring compliance with all ITAR regulations will also be on display. "We are thrilled to offer compliant build-to-print precision optics solutions for electro-optic target designation, illumination, rangefinding, and fire control systems to our customers in the aerospace and defense industries," said Frank Weiss, Senior VP of Aerospace & Defense of G&H.

G&H's precision optics capability for aerospace and defense applications in the US market is supported by its state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities and its team of experienced engineers and technicians. The company's commitment to quality is demonstrated by its ITAR compliance and ISO 9001:2015 and AS9100D certifications.

Fiber Optics

The full range of G&H's active and passive fiber optic component technology will also be on display. Suitable and qualified for harsh environments and demanding missions, the company’s high-power DFB lasers, single and multimode pump lasers, photodetectors, Fiber-Q acousto-optic modulators, passive combiners, splitters and taps will be on display.

“G&H has a long history of developing and manufacturing high-performance active and passive fiber optic components for critical airborne, space and maritime missions such as directed energy, inertial measurement systems, EW, LIDAR and RF/microwave photonics,” added Weiss.
