Intravascular imaging gives a doctor a view inside a patient’s vascular system to help diagnose disease or other issues—and it saves lives. Cutting-edge optical technologies are...
It’s nice to create custom lenses for optical products—and a must-have in certain situations when there are tight size and weight restrictions—but using stock optics in optical...
With the demand for thinner and lighter lenses for everything from cell phones to lidar to virtual reality headsets, there can be a reliance on onboard software as a safety net...
The digital radiography market is growing—and it’s no wonder since flat-panel and other detectors present numerous benefits to the healthcare field. For example, patients are ...
Designing a product for manufacturability means that it can be built within budget, and there are four critical elements for optical engineers to consider when designing an optical...
Depending on the device, good image processing software can greatly reduce the need for accurate optical systems. One example of this is the human eye, which is a weak optical...
Engineers need to combine nanoscale optical components used to create computer-generated images with macroscopic optics used to relay images to the human eye. Freeform-optics ...
To bring disruptive laser innovations to market, research and engineering teams must learn to identify design failures and course correct quickly. Virtual prototyping moves product...
Companies developing optical products can gain a competitive advantage by following six best practices in product development that help overcome the struggle to bring projects...
Not all virtual prototyping is created equal. To see real cost and timeline savings, virtual prototyping must encompass the optical performance and the mechanical components. ...
