Confused about the differences between traditional-coated and hard-coated optical filters?

Although a common misconception, individual optical lenses do not always form an image when the object plane is placed a focal length away from the lens.

Collimated light occurs when light rays travel parallel to each other.

When doing basic imaging, how do you determine the magnification an optical lens will provide?

Easily add and remove optical filters from any cage system setup after viewing this quick demonstration of integrating a filter holder plate and interchangeable filter holder using #86-018 and #85-649.

Designed for modularity and flexibility, Edmund Optics' TECHSPEC Optical Cage System components are high precision alternatives to complex optical alignment systems.

Mirrors are commonly used to fold or compact an optical system.

No imaging lens is the ideal choice for every type of imaging sensor, as multiple tradeoffs must be weighed and prioritized for every application.

This is a quick video demonstration of integrating an optical cage system interchangeable optical mount and side access mounting plate using #85-717 and #85-641.

Telecentric lenses capture high-accuracy measurements because their lack of parallax error makes objects appear the same size independent of their location

Many laser applications are prone to specular reflections back into the source, causing overheating and decreased stability and lifetime.

The TECHSPEC® MercuryTL™ Liquid Lens Telecentric Lenses combine the parallax error correction and high image quality of a telecentric lens with the flexibility of an integrated liquid lens.

Free-space optical (FSO) communications transmit information wirelessly through the air using lasers with improved bandwidth. Learn more!

Fresnel lenses are composed of a series of concentric grooves etched into one side of a sheet of plastic. Fresnel lenses are unlike typical spherical or aspherical optical lenses.
