About

UK Research and Innovation awarded a contract to Lambda Photometrics limited for the supply of a collimator system for optical measurements over the visible (VIS) to thermal infrared (TIR) wavelength range (spectral range: 0.40 μm to 14.00 μm).

The system is intended for pre-launch optical characterisation and calibration of small Earth observing satellites, imaging systems, and remote sensing optical solutions.

The delivered system includes a collimator, uniform white light and TIR sources, precision targets and target wheel, along with all necessary equipment and control software for operation.

All components were fully integrated into a robust enclosure system.

The contract value was 160,000 AUD.
