Case Study: Structured-Light Stereovision System for Parcel and Package 3D Dimensioning
Optics for Hire designed and prototyped a structured-light stereovision system for real-time 3D package dimensioning on warehouse conveyor lines. The project included ZEMAX optical modeling, custom subpixel stereo matching algorithm development in MATLAB, and bench-top prototype validation, achieving 0.9 mm depth accuracy across a 700–1500 mm working range within a 14–16 week engagement.
Case Study: Optical Data Storage System Design & Engineering
Full-system optical drive design spanning 11 platform programs across 4+ decades. Pickup head optics, servo systems, laser drivers, signal processing, and custom test equipment for LaserDisc, CD, DVD, FMD multilayer, WORM, holographic, and LaserCard formats.
Case Study: Downhole Optical Fluid Discrimination Sensor: Optical Modeling for High Temperature High Pressure Oilfield Sensor
Downhole Optical Fluid Discrimination Sensor
Optics for Hire developed a ZEMAX optical model for a downhole fluid discrimination sensor operating at extreme temperatures and pressures in oilfield environments. The project involved non-sequential ray tracing to optimize LED illumination, fluorescence collection, and detector signal-to-noise across multiple optical channels for real-time wellbore fluid analysis.
