Visual autocollimators are often used for aligning laser rod ends and checking the face parallelism of optical windows and wedges.
Measuring with an electronic autocollimator is fast, easy, accurate, and will frequently be the most cost effective procedure.
Used extensively in workshops, tool rooms, inspection departments and quality control laboratories worldwide, these highly sensitive instruments will measure extremely small angular displacements, squareness, twist and parallelism.
Hybrid technology fulfills a need recently developed by novel photonics applications has created for the alignment and measurement of optics and lasers.
Recent progress has been made in with the aim to serve the photonics AR/VR industry, involving development in interalingment, fusion of several wavelengths including NIR into one system, and measurements of multi laser array such as VCSEL in respect with other optical sensors, to improve angular accurate optical measurements to a resolution of 0.01 arcseconds.
