Surface mount UV LEDs for curing and horticulture
The Broadcom 3W 3535 Surface Mount UV LEDs are energy-efficient LEDs that can be driven at high driving current and are able to dissipate heat efficiently, resulting in higher reliability. Their low-profile package design addresses a wide variety of applications where superior robustness and high efficiency are required.
Avnet Silica, Xilinx advance ANPR camera development
Avnet Silica and Tattile, a developer of ANPR hardware and software for embedded-vision systems, teamed up to further develop its Smart City camera technology.
MAX25605 sequential LED controller cuts size in half
The MAX25605 sequential LED controller from Maxim Integrated Products aim to allow easy and cost-effective addition of automotive sequential LED lighting features. It saves development time and reduces design complexity by eliminating the need for a microcontroller or software.
Optical coatings on fibre tips
LASER COMPONENTS’ partner Omega Optical have 50 years’ experience producing high quality optical filters and coatings and can now help customers with broadband anti-reflection coatings, long-pass, short-pass, band-pass and notch filters, which may be applied to fibre tips using both semi-hard, and hard oxide materials.
IDS is now offers 20 new C-mount lenses
IDS is now offering more than 20 new C-mount lenses. Thanks to lens resolutions of five, eight and ten megapixels as well as different focal lengths and optical classes, they can be used in numerous application scenarios. In addition, they are characterised by a very good price-performance ratio.
Vertical cavity surface emitting lasers in DToF
LASER COMPONENTS has announced that it offers a wide range of Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) diodes. These VCSELs offer high performance at a relatively low price and are ideal for a wide range of range finding and 3D detection applications. High power VCSEL pulsed laser diodes are available with output powers up to 50W and are ideal for Direct Time of Flight (DToF) applications.
Optical windows for wind tunnel aerodynamic testing
Optical Surfaces has produced large diameter, high precision windows for wind tunnel aerodynamic testing. Aerodynamicists and engineers use wind tunnels to test models of proposed aircraft and engine components. During a test, the model is placed in the test section of the tunnel and air is made to flow past the model.
ModBox-Front-End solution for optical pulse shaping
LASER COMPONENTS has announced that it offers iXblue’s ModBox-Front-End turnkey system as a solution for optical pulse shaping, offering the finest performance for the end user by integrating screened and selected components that are controlled by a dedicated software interface for intuitive control to provide reliable and stable operation.
Mola N3 dash cam with ultra HD quality and sense reality
DDPAI has announced the launch of its ultra HD dash cam, the Mola N3. With the number of cars increasing, dash cams are becoming a new favourite gadget for drivers to ensure that they can capture crucial evidence in the event of an incident and quickly resolve any disputes by recording their entire journey.
Laser optics customisation to meet specific requirements
LASER COMPONENTS has announced that it manufactures laser optics that are optimally adapted to meet the customer’s requirements. This not only applies to series production but to the individual lenses and mirrors produced in house as well. From substrate production and coatings to a thorough outgoing goods inspection, all operating steps are carried out in house.
