Laser specifications inevitably change over time due to aging parts, malfunctions, contaminants on the optics, and environmental effects. They are also affected by the surrounding environmental conditions and the optical components that guide the beam to its delivery point. Ensure optimal performance of your laser application by measuring your laser with Gentec-EO accuracy.

In this episode: a new LiDAR system boosts airborne apps, an optic-involved setup eyes concrete structures, and laser-driven fusion could lead to cleaner energy sources.
Here are some post-show thoughts about the International Laser Technology Congress (AKL '24) held April 17-19.
