The L2200D1810-JH pyroelectric detector from LASER COMPONENTS was developed to make H2 flames, which are invisible to the human eye, visible. For this purpose, the component includes a newly developed filter combination for IR emissions at 2.95µm. This makes it possible to detect hot water molecules produced during the combustion of hydrogen. A built-in reference prevents false alarms.

Laser Components now offers a digital laser driver for driving and monitoring selected Flexpoint laser modules
Laser Components now also offers a solid-state CMOS sensor for flash lidar applications
At booth 1751, Laser Components will be highlighting its first Flexpoint line laser module in a square (65 x 15 x 15mm) casing. This latest addition to the Flexpoint MV series was designed for quick and easy installation during series production of 3D systems for industrial image processing. Focus, beam position and all other parameters can be aligned during production according to customer specifications.
