MACHINE VISION

A range of filters are available for Machine Vision.

High Performance Mounted Machine Vision Filters are designed and manufactured for the most demanding machine vision and imaging applications. High Performance Mounted Machine Vision Filters pass or block specific UV, visible, or IR wavelengths and provide extremely wide angles of incidence. Compared to traditional filters, these hard coated filters provide superior blocking of unwanted light and greater durability for longer lifetimes. Additionally, these filters can be used to improve image contrast and isolate spectral regions and colors.Filters are an accessory used in astronomy with telescopes and/or instruments such as a CCD camera, to improve the observation of celestial objects and/or to facilitate the measurement of the number of photons of selected wavelengths of light. Filters of varying wavelength width or bandpass can be used.

A range of filter choices are available depending on the type of observation: for solar, lunar, planetary, stellar and nebula observations. Filter properties and types will change depending on the specific wavelengths or regions of the electromagnetic spectrum observed. Filters are usually made of glass, acrylic or other similar transparent material and then coated as required. Filters can be placed in different locations of the optical path but typically just before the eyepiece lens or detector.

Machine Vision Specifications

• Wavelength Range: 193nm up to 14000nm.

• Filters include Sloan DSS, MKO NIR filters (YJHKLM) and long wavelength N-Band all custom tuned to your desired specifications.

• Custom dichroics with an image quality reflected wave front and wedged to reduce astigmatism in transmission.
