Controlling light

With R&D in optics it is now possible to control light better. This process ranges from generation to propagation and manipulation of light, also taking in its use and detection.

A comprehensive view of optics

Optics, the study of the behaviour and properties of light, is used to carry out wide-ranging measurement tasks. CTR develops innovative optical systems for this purpose and implements them in many different projects. From development to manufacturing readiness we work in close cooperation with our industrial partners. CTR concentrates on the various development stages in optics.

  • Optical design: basic development of optical components and assembly to produce optical systems
  • Applied optics: using the optical systems from optical design and combining them with sensors for precision measurement and analysis

Applications

Optical systems equipped with sensors can be used in many different industries and sectors. They not only help in process monitoring and optimisation, but can also be used in lighting or machining systems (laser).

CTR expertise

CTR provides comprehensive solutions in the field of optics. Our focus on two research areas, optical design and applied optics, means that we provide an extensive range of services including an analysis of the demands placed on the finished product, system design and validation, development and system integration of prototypes.
