1. Evaluating Residual Stress In Glass And Other Substrates 2/1/2024

   Photron USA CEO Andrew Bridges showcases the PA/WPA series of birefringence measurement systems that can evaluate very low levels of retardation in transparent objects, including Pancake/Holocake lenses for VR headsets.

2. Detect Damaging Effects In Transparent/Semi-transparent Materials 1/27/2022

   We caught up with Andrew Bridges at Photron on day two of Photonics West 2022 to learn more about the Crysta – a high speed polarization camera used for the two-dimensional analysis of birefringence measurements, film thickness analysis, and surface roughness inspection.

3. High-Speed Systems For Visualizing And Qualifying Birefringent Retardation 2/6/2019

   In this video, Andrew Bridges from Photron, explains demonstrated results using their series of polarization systems, including the CRYSTA, a high-speed 2D polarization camera that enables you to see the stress in transparent and semi-transparent materials and fluids.

4. Visualizing And Qualifying The Birefringent Retardation In Transparent And Semi-Transparent Materials 2/5/2019

   In this Photonics West 2019 video, Andrew Bridges from Photron walks us through an in depth understanding of the benefits and use of being able to visualize and qualify the birefringent retardation in transparent and semi-transparent materials and fluids.

5. Product Video: High-Speed 2D Polarization 2/2/2018

   Andrew Bridges discusses CRYSTA, which takes a conventional high-speed camera and adds an affixed micropolarizer array to a CMOS sensor, giving it the ability to detect phase difference, and allowing the operator to plot birefringence or retardation in transparent or semi-transparent materials.
