Challenges to optical deployment in nuclear facilities
For the high radiation environments experienced in nuclear power plants and nuclear fuel recycling facilities, conventional vision cameras and lenses have a very short life. The challenges to optics...
Why risk optical failure on deployment?
The cost of launching optical payloads into space is considerable. Likewise, reliability in military hardware is critical. Our investment in state-of-the-art vibration/shock test equipment allows us...
What is the typical process from initial enquiry to Resolve Optics delivering a new custom lens optimized for my application?
When we receive a new enquiry our design team will first look it over to determine feasibility and gauge exactly what would be involved. Once this is complete, we then supply you with an estimate...
What are the key considerations when selecting a lens to get optimum performance from my camera or sensor?
The ability of a lens to resolve detail is not only determined by its manufacturing quality but also by other important fundamental considerations. We recommend that you read our white paper ‘Sensor...
Seeking the best lens for your imaging system?
To achieve best performance in optical imaging applications it is critical to select a lens that is optimised to your camera, sensor, or instrument. For an application that optically requires...
What is outgassing and why is it a consideration in space ready optics?
A: Outgassing is the process in which materials release gas when exposed to heat or vacuum. ASTM E595-77/84/90 is a NASA standard used to determine how much volatile content is contained in a...
Do you have what it takes to become a new member of our production team?
Resolve Optics is expanding its motivated team of production technicians who assemble and test our high quality, bespoke optical systems. We are looking for a person with a mechanical aptitude, who...
What radiation resistant lenses can you offer for CMOS sensors
A: The desire from nuclear plant operators for clearer and brighter images to enable better monitoring of their facilities and processes has accelerated the move from low resolution tube cameras to...
You state that you can supply ‘space ready’ optics – what does this involve
A: Space is a truly harsh operating environment for optics and imaging systems. A key consideration when producing a space ready lens is ensuring it will withstand the vibration and shock of launch....
