    Abrisa offers solutions that promote color or signal separation, signal and “color” isolation, color temperature correction, aesthetic lighting effects, selective wavelength or color illumination, Dichroic color separation, and filters for Heads Up Display (HUD).

  5. Abrisa's Guide To Glass 6/24/2020

    Abrisa Technologies’ "Guide to Glass" discusses types of glass and their associated thermal, optical, chemical, mechanical, and electrical properties. This download also helps the reader better understand light and color; glare reduction; and glass strengthening methods using heat and chemicals.

  6. What Is A UV Filter? 11/21/2019

    A UV-blocking filter or ultraviolet optical filter prevents ultraviolet light transmission. UV filters are commonly used in photography to reduce the level of ultraviolet light that strikes the recording medium.

  7. Changing Correlated Color Temperature With Orange and Blue Optical Filters 11/21/2019

    The class of optical filters used to change the correlated color temperature of a light source is called Color Temperature filters. This article discusses the use of Color Temperature Orange (CTO) And Color Temperature Blue (CTB) filters in particular.

  8. What Is A Dichroic Filter? 11/21/2019

    A dichroic filter, thin-film filter, or interference filter, is a color filter used to selectively pass light of a small range of colors while reflecting other colors. Dichroic mirrors and dichroic reflectors tend to be characterized by the color(s) of light that they reflect, rather than the color(s) they pass.

  9. Oleophobic vs. Hydrophobic Glass Coatings 11/21/2019

    Oleophobic coatings are well-suited for projected capacitive (PCAP) and capacitive touch screens, handheld devices, teleprompters, virtual reality applications, and more. Hydrophobic coatings do not allow water to bond with the surface of the glass.

  10. What Is A Neutral Density Filter? 11/21/2019

    A neutral density, or ND, optical filter reduces or modifies the intensity of all wavelengths or colors of light equally, therefore providing for no changes in the hue of the color rendition. Neutral density filters can be colorless or clear, or they can be grey in tone.
