Photonics West Videos

  1. Do More In Small Spaces 2/13/2015

    Aaron Johnson with Accumold met with us on the last day of Photonics West 2015 to talk about his company’s micro optics capabilities and how they can be used in light management, micro sensing, personal devices, endoscopic/catheter-based deployment devices, and more. Ring in the International Year Of Light and watch the video to learn more about how their high-precision injection molding services can be used in your next design.

  2. Bring On Your Most Challenging Micro-Optical Needs 2/13/2015

    Precision Optics Corporations’ Richard Cyr met with us at the Photonics West 2015 exhibition to talk to us about the micro-precision optical components his company provides. This ranges from micro-prisms, micro-precision lenses and lens systems, and more. Watch the video for specifics on just how small some of these parts can get.

  3. You Can Still Buy American 2/12/2015

    At Photonics West this year, Dan Bukaty Jr. with Precision Glass & Optics (PG&O) spoke with us about the misconception of Asian manufacturers being both faster and less expensive than their American counterparts. If you’re looking for plain or coated optics or high-volume scribing technology from a U.S. based manufacturer, look no further.

  4. Integrated 3X Continuous Zoom Optic In A Thermal Imaging Camera 2/12/2015

    Chris Johnston with Sierra-Olympic took time out of day two of the exhibition to show us the Vinden CZ. If you work in the security and surveillance space or have a project that requires thermal imaging with advanced continuous zoom capabilities, watch the video to see if its features and specifications match your needs.

  5. Any Waveband, Any Application 2/12/2015

    FLIR had four brand new IR cameras on display at Photonics West this year. Whether you’re a current customer or have only considered them in the past, they likely have a thermal imaging solution for any application you can come up with (and in some cases, for 30% less of the cost of previous models). Don’t take our word for it though. Check out the video as Eric Hughes walks us through the specifications and features of these new infrared cameras.

  6. New MLWIR Bandpass And Multi-Zone Optical Filters 2/12/2015

    Iridian Spectral has been busy expanding its product offerings, and Hongbai Lao was kind enough to show us what the company was featuring at the show.

  7. OptoSigma Doubles Product Offering 2/11/2015

    Dan Denison with OptoSigma gave us a detailed look at the impact of a recent unification of internal resources and the rollout of a new global catalog. If you’ve purchased from OptoSigma before, it may interest you to know that their product offering has doubled, and that improvements to their previous existing line have been made. 

  8. Measure And Analyze Light In The Field Or Lab 2/11/2015

    At Photonics West 2015, StellarNet had a wide variety of solutions on hand for light measurement and analysis. This year, Kimberly Quinones gave us a tour of the booth, starting with miniature portable and rugged spectrometers for applications in the UV, VIS, and NIR range, and then moving on to a Raman spectroscopy setup for raw material identification, pharmaceutical analysis, and more.

  9. New Galvano Scanner And Parallel Laser Beam Shifter At Photonics West 2015 2/11/2015

    Taiki Iida with Canon showed us some of their Galvano scanners that were on display this year, most notably two new models.

  10. You And Your Applications — How You're Using Ocean Optics' Products 2/11/2015

    Yvette Matley with Ocean Optics took us for a rather fun tour of their Photonics West booth this year. Check out the video for an interactive in-booth diagnostics laboratory and a simulated city in which air quality can be  measured.
