Kenley, UK — Optical Surfaces Ltd. has announced that it has delivered, to a leading European avionics / defence supplier, a 235mm clear aperture beam collimator enabling the company to precisely measure the quality of their Imaging systems from the visible to the IR using Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) criteria.
As the demand for higher quality, higher resolution optical systems for integration into sophisticated imaging systems has become more prevalent, many designers and scientists have chosen MTF measurement** as a flexible and accurate system characterisation tool.
Beam collimators are optical assemblies that take divergent or convergent incoming light rays and produce parallel light output. They can be used to replicate a target at infinity without parallax.
