Exhibition on Lasers, Optics & Photonics

Optical Engineering

The design, development, and usage of optical systems and technologies are the main areas of concentration for optical engineering, a specialist branch of engineering. It includes the development of optical systems and tools such as lenses, cameras, microscopes, and lasers for a range of applications in the aerospace, medical imaging, and telecommunications industries. By adjusting light, enhancing image quality, and reducing aberrations, optical engineers maximise the performance of optical systems. They handle challenging issues pertaining to light propagation, diffraction, and polarisation using concepts from engineering, physics, and optics. From consumer electronics to scientific research, optical engineering is essential to the advancement of light-based technologies.
