MKS-Ophir will present a 60-minute technical webinar focused on the latest advancements in infrared (IR) zoom lens technology engineered to support the evolving requirements of modern aerial platforms.
As unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and drones continue to develop, the need for high-performance optical systems that meet strict size, weight, and power (SWaP) limitations has become critical.
This session will provide an in-depth look at the design challenges and engineering solutions involved in producing compact IR zoom lenses that deliver excellent image quality, line-of-sight stability, and high zoom ratios under demanding environmental conditions.
Key Topics
- Folded-optics architectures for reduced lens size and volume
- Integration of advanced IR elements featuring aspheric and diffractive surfaces
- Mechanical design methods that ensure image stability and focus across the zoom range
- Field case studies showcasing successful system deployment and performance
Presenters:
- JJ Conboy, Sales Territory Manager – North America, Ophir IR Optics
- Omer Frank, Regional Sales Manager – APAC & India, Ophir IR Optics
