Our Project Process
How it works?
Our project review process is designed to ensure that every aspect of your project meets the highest standards of quality, precision, and performance. Here’s how we conduct our thorough project review:
How we work with clients:
From concept validation to analysis to design and production, every optical engineering project is different and based on your specific application area.
But these are typical stages of a project program:
Project Review: Discuss your project requirements, goals, and specifications to establish a clear foundation.
Concept Development: Paper design, simulations, and block diagrams for optics, mechanics, and electronics are created.
Design: Comprehensive design services, including optical, electronics, embedded software, mechanical design, and manufacturing documentation.
Prototyping: Prototype manufacturing and assembly are performed to create initial versions of the product for testing and evaluation.
Testing: Lens and subsystem testing, system debugging, experimental measurements, and prototype delivery..
Production Support: Developing quality control processes and delivering the system at volume.

Customer Feedback
“I have a background in optics, but lens design has always been a mystery to me. Your explanations helped me to decipher it.
Again, I am grateful for your expertise. It is a blessing for me to work with you and OFH.”
University of Alabama Birmingham
Development of ophthalmology research tool
“We really enjoyed working with you guys and your professionalism is admirable. We shall also revert back once we have the commercialization process sorted. “
Agrismart Engineering
Grow Light Design
“I want to take this opportunity to comment how impressed I am with OFH. Your team is moving so fast, I feel like a turtle. Also, it’s been noted that every time we ask something, our question is promptly answered and your team often brings up aspects that we haven’t considered.”
