More Facts About Other Greenlight Applications
Thursday, November 13, 2014
As an optics business, it’s clear
that we immerse ourselves in optical engineering and plastic optics molding.
But, our company focuses on other parts of the optics and engineering world as
well. What exactly are some of the other applications we do at Greenlight
Optics? Though we dedicate time and resources to a plethora of different
aspects, we’ll just focus on three right now: miniature projection, medical
imaging and CNC machining. Read on to find out more about each of these
applications.
MINIATURE PROJECTION
Movie theaters, classrooms, office
buildings and eve homes around the world all have projectors and screens placed
in their rooms. And while some settings call for a video to be projected on a
grand scale, other instances do not. That’s where miniature projection comes
in. All of the technology and information that’s included in a typical
projector is packed into a handheld device.
These miniature projectors need precision,
experience and innovative thinking when it comes to designing, manufacturing
and developing them. Greenlight Optics offers all of these and, as such, is a
recognized leader with miniature projectors. Many of the miniature projectors
we work with employ a more widespread use of LEDs as a part of their design,
and we take that into careful consideration. With embedded pico-projector
modules, electronic eyewear and even pocket projectors, there are more and more
uses every day for miniature projectors. Smartphones, mobile video games and
many other applications are currently using these devices; some uses haven’t
even been imagined yet!
MEDICAL IMAGING
When trying to create a visual representation of
the inner workings of the human body, medical imaging leaves no room for error.
At Greenlight Optics, we understand this because of our experience in imaging
and sensing. We work on developing custom lenses and imaging modules that are
designed with the needs of each unique function in mind. There are different
technologies that are used in medical imaging, such as magnetic resonance
imaging (MRIs) and sonic imaging, but optical imaging remains a cornerstone of
the diagnostic process.
CNC MACHINING
Experienced machinists can create a myriad of
items. That’s whom we have in-house at Greenlight Optics. Having experienced
machinists and toolmakers allows us to design parts at our facility without
having to send the work out, so we can provide you with the very best quality
and ready-to-use optical products. With computer numerical control (CNC)
machining, controls and commands are completed by automation, of course, but have
commands programmed by our experts. Knife cutting, glass cutting, 3-D printing
and glass lenses all benefit from some form of CNC machining.
Though, typically
when you think “optics,” the immediate thought is about eyes, there are many
other facets included in the optics engineering industry. While you may be
familiar with the terms LEDs and lasers, there are many more capabilities and
projects occurring under the Greenlight Optics’ roof.
