Representative Research Cases

Development and commercialization of freeform optics surface measuring instrument

  • High speed surface measuring instrument for large area freeform optics was successfully developed, and commercialized through technology transfer to company. This measure can measures the surface of 300 mm diameter freeform optics within 1 minutes with 2 μm (PV) precision.
  • Development of unmanned airborne
TMA fore-optics for exploring the moon
