A contract to supply unique periscope technology as part of the UK’s Challenger 3 program to upgrade the British Army’s main battle tanks has been won by G&H.
-
TRUMPF Photonic Components, a global leader in VCSEL and photodiode solutions, presents a newly developed, state-of-the-art product platform for its single-mode VCSEL products for industrial and professional applications.
-
Bright Ideas presents the most captivating news and innovations in photonics. This week, Optica issues a mid-year report of the state of the optics and photonic industry. And despite some pitfalls, the latter half of the year looks promising. Plus, SPIE Astronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation brings with it some exciting announcements, and JWST images and data keep rolling in.
-
JARS adds a new award for best student paper to existing awards recognizing interdisciplinary applications, theoretical innovation, and photo-optical instrumentation and design.
-
Mercury Systems Inc., a leader in trusted, secure mission-critical technologies for aerospace and defense, and Lockheed Martin announced they signed an agreement to collaborate on the development and manufacture of new sensor processing technologies for radar signal processing, multi-sensor data fusion, artificial intelligence, and situational awareness.
SENSORS & DETECTORS VIDEOS
-
This demo video demonstrates fully corrected SWIR continuous zoom imagery using a 10µm pixel VGA sensor whose smaller FPA and pixel results in narrower FOV and smaller IFOV.
-
On day two of Photonics West 2022, Toby Reid with Gooch & Housego discussed how their fiber optic components can be integrated into lidar systems for applications involving distributed fiber sensing, atmospheric sensing, and remote sensing.
-
The second generation of the INTEGRA is a meterless line of all-in-one detectors that combine a detector and a meter in one device that lugs directly into your PC. Each detector of the INTEGRA series offers the same incredible performance as the usual detector and meter combination, from pW to kW and from fJ to J. For a brief introduction on this product, watch the video.

On the last day of SPIE’s 2016 DCS exhibition in Baltimore, Kevin Fogarty with Canon showed us a 19 micron pixel pitch sensor that can achieve a full color and high definition image in extremely low light environments.
-
This year at SPIE’s DCS exhibition, Donna with DSI gave us a quick on-location hello from the show floor before turning it over to principle investigator Kevin Gibbons so that he could offer some advice on what you should consider before determining an optical coating’s specifications for sensing applications.
-
Marco Snikkers wrapped up our Photonics West 2016 coverage by introducing us to a pixel sensor that acts as an 8-channel spectrometer for biomedical, fluorescence marking, and colorimeter applications, as well as a multi-spectral camera that can monitor specific wavelengths in real-time.
-
Sensors Unlimited — UTC Aerospace Systems cut the ribbon on their new facility on September 17th, 2014. Doug Malchow spent a few minutes with us explaining how the move to a bigger and better place has already resulted in better quality imaging detectors with lower defects, lower bad pixel counts, and much lower dark current.
