Resolve Optics announce a new 6x Non-Browning Zoom Lens design optimised for a 1-inch sensor format shielded camera. Camera sensor size is one the most important factors in determining overall camera performance and image quality. A key advantage of 1-inch sensors is that they are larger than most sensors found in nuclear cameras, which allows the Read More

Dichroic beamsplitters from Optical Surfaces Ltd are commonly used as light guiding optics in telescope spectrographs and to enable multichannel CCD cameras to simultaneously acquire images in different colours. Beamsplitters operate by dividing an incident beam of light into two parts. One part is transmitted through the beamsplitter, the other Read More

SI Sensors design novel CMOS image sensors for ultra-fast cameras that increase the velocity of the signal electrons allowing them to be swept out of the photodiode and be detected much faster. Developing ultra-high-speed CMOS image sensors is difficult because at very high frame rates, the integration time is extremely short and there is never en Read More

Resolve Optics is a leading developer of robust endoscope optical systems for nuclear inspection and monitoring applications. For the safe operation of nuclear power plants, regular endoscope inspection should be conducted in areas including pipes. power generators, condensers, steam generators and turbines for signs of degradation and wear. Where Read More

Optical Surfaces Ltd is a leading producer of large diameter aspheric lenses used as critical focusing optics in high-power laser research. Aspheric lenses provide a cost-effective way of reducing the number of optical elements in a focusing system thereby making them ideal for low f-number, high throughput laser applications. Beneficially also a Read More

Resolve Optics has developed a unique optical module that fulfils the wide range of mounting arrangements used by different satellite camera systems. Developed in conjunction with ultra-high-definition video camera specialists – Sen (London, UK), the new 406-000 f2 radiation resistant lens from Resolve Optics is incorporated within an optical modu Read More

SI Sensors (Cambridge, UK) are developing a custom silicon image sensor for an Asian government agency meteorological satellite instrument, which is planned to enter geostationary orbit. The satellite will house multiple radiation hard imaging payloads, enabling high precision space environment monitoring and early weather warning services from an Read More

Optical Surfaces Ltd. has received an order from JEEWOO Photonics Ltd (Daejeon, South Korea) to produce a 700mm diameter reference flat - a key component in an optical test system being developed for a space optics organisation. The optical test system is required for aligning and testing long focal length, large aperture multi optical component s Read More

Specialised Imaging reports that its Kirana ultra-high speed video camera has been chosen by researchers at the University of Dresden (Germany) following a head-to-head comparison against alternative commercially available cameras. To choose the best camera to investigate the behaviour of concrete when subjected to high impact loading – the Dresde Read More

Resolve Optics offers a design and manufacture service for nuclear camera and sensor manufacturers requiring non-browning lenses optimized to their application. With recent advances in technology – CMOS sensors are being developed capable of withstanding higher levels of radiation than was previously possible making them a viable option for a much Read More
