Anaheim, California: A City of Fun & Excitement
The Anaheim Convention Center in California will host SPIE’s Defense and Commercial Sensing this year. It’s a global technical conference and exhibition focused on sensing, imaging and photonics technologies for applications in defense, security, health care and the environment.
But there’s more to Anaheim than its convention center. Founded in the mid-1800s by a group of German families, this city is now among the most populous in California. Anaheim sits within the Los Angeles metropolitan area, along the Santa Ana River and nearby Santa Ana Mountains. But not only is it a beautiful city, it’s also filled with thrills, excitement and fun.

Hinds’ PEMs for Remote Sensing
From: Hinds Instruments Inc.
Hinds Instruments manufactures ruggedized Photoelastic Modulators (PEMs) for use in remote sensing applications. Ruggedized PEMs are for use outside the lab and can be used in planes or other sub-orbital installations. Standard PEM configurations are available for use in Stokes and Mueller polarimetry. For these we offer kits or fully integrated systems for light or materials measurement.

Multizone Filters for Remote Sensing
From: Iridian Spectral Technologies
The ability to offer spatially varying spectral performance on a single element can have many advantages in optical systems used for Earth Observation (EO) remote sensing or multi-spectral imaging. Iridian offers customized multizone filter (MZF) arrays using both multi-element assemblies (“butcher-block” approach) and patterned arrays to address growing needs for this functionality anywhere in the wavelength range from the UV (300nm) to LWIR (10um).

SpectralLED Tunable Light Source
From: Gamma Scientific
The SpectralLED tunable uniform light source for camera and image sensor calibration delivers superior spectral resolution and accuracy with higher brightness and a broader color gamut than any available halogen or LED-based source. It accomplishes this with 35 discrete LED channels, each having 16-bit resolution in intensity settings. This enables the SpectralLED to be programmed to produce output that closely matches virtually any illuminant source in a single instrument.
