Applied research
Optical metrology relies on continuing scientific research into the fundamental principles of light-based measurements using geometrical and wave optics. We offer original physics-based research in collaboration with international projects, academia, and industry.
Training and short courses
Solid foundations are essential to understanding measurement results, selecting the right instrumentation for the job to be done, and for new product discovery. We offer technical enrichment courses from one hour to full day, in optics, metrology, data analysis, and applications.
Emerging market Opportunities
Photonics growth is a global phenomenon. We offer services in training in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, as well as in product development in cooperation with non-profit and academic institutions wordwide.
New product discovery
End markets are rapidly evolving, placing new demands on enabling technologies and opportunities for new product development to address critical unmet needs. We offer assistance in identifying these opportunities, competitive analysis, and approaches to unique solutions.
Intellectual property management
Successful technology businesses leverage proprietary, captive technologies to successfully address customer needs. We offer highly experienced guidance for protection of trade secrets, freedom to practice research, patent portfolio management, working with IP attorneys, and complying with customer non-disclosure agreements.
International standards
Metrology requires rigorous calibrations, data acquisition and analysis with clear terms, specifications, definitions and procedures. We offer expertise in international and national standards, including in particular, the ISO 25178 surface texture documents, which cover optical instruments and methods for areal surface topography measurements.
Presentations and technical writing
Even the very best ideas do not sell themselves. We offer effective, proven strategies for written and oral engineering communication, including review and editing of technical papers, presentation slides, and video content.
