About Proof of Concept Optical Engineering

Our mission is to design the prototype optics that advance your project to the next phase. We will work with you to derive the optical requirements for your project and design the most suitable optics, leveraging our experience and the latest raytracing tools. We have basic optical prototyping and testing capabilities on-site, as well as access to local state-of-the-art optical testing facilities. Our service is hourly, which provides flexibility appropriate for R&D efforts. Our primary capability is lens design. This can include laser beam propagation, stray light analysis, working with and generating CAD models, colorimetry, polarization analysis, hologram modeling, GRIN media modeling, diffraction grating and diffractive lens design, thin film coating modeling, modeling of complex sources and detectors, thermal analysis, and fiber coupling analysis. Our primary in-house software tools are Zemax Professional, Matlab with the Image Processing Toolbox, and Mathcad. Our recent designs have included diffractive optic cameras, plenoptic cameras, virtual reality HMDs, astronomical spectrometers, 3D printer optics, laser diode beamshaping optics, digital microscopes, smartphone optical accessories, LED illumination optics, fluorescent lamp reflectors, and heads-up displays. We have basic prototyping and testing capabilities in-house, as well as access to more established optical test facilities and research laboratories in the Boulder-Denver area. In house, we can breadboard complex optical systems as well as simple electronic systems We can measure optical resolution, FOV, spectral characteristics of optics, focal length, fringes of deviation from flatness, lens density, and lens radii. We have alignment tools, such as a shearing interferometer for optimizing collimation. We also have a digital microscope and a thermal imaging camera.
