In a new webinar from MKS Ophir IR Optics, the company’s Peter Kunert will explore the advantages of SWIR lenses and how they play a pivotal role in air, land, and maritime imaging.
Occurring live on Thursday, September 12th 2024 at 1pm UTC (9am EDT), the webinar will outline how the lenses offer unparalleled visibility even in challenging conditions, such as haze, smoke, and fog.
Incorporating SWIR and NIR into electro-optical (EO) systems significantly enhances image clarity and performance. SWIR lenses excel in long-range daytime observation, effective glass transmission, and precise laser spot detection for designators, making them an ideal solution for defense and homeland security applications.
Kunert’s presentation will share how SWIR technology can transform an EO system and improve operational efficiency. The webinar will be especially interesting to:
- Researchers, developers, and engineers who work with SWIR and NIR lenses.
- Those interested in purchasing optical equipment and tools and IR camera integrators.
- Anyone whose work includes imaging in challenging environments or electro-optical systems.
- Those who use cameras, detectors, and imaging equipment in defense and aerospace applications.
Peter Kunert, Ph.D., is Manager of Sales Europe at MKS for Ophir’s IR products. He brings extensive technical expertise and project management experience, with many years in thermal imaging applications, and holds a doctorate in physics in the area of quantum optics from University of Siegen in Germany.
The company itself, Ophir Optronics Solutions, Infrared Optics Group, an MKS Brand (NASDAQ: MKSI), is a leading designer and manufacturer of high-performance IR thermal imaging lenses and optical elements for SWIR, MIR, and LWIR imaging.
Using advanced technologies, innovative engineering, and design configurations, Ophir provides a global solution for homeland security, surveillance, defense and commercial applications, such as IR components and complex lens assemblies with fixed or motorized focus and zoom lenses.
