Electronically
Variable Diffusers allow
researchers at optical laboratories to
have continuous
variable
control over diffusion angle
while eliminating the inconvenience of changing
fixed
diffusers.
For optical
table use, the
diffuser
aperture
is 1 inch in diameter to fit
both

but future
products for other ap
plications can have a diffuser of any size and shape up to 2 square feet.
OEM kits will be available for product developers who want to transition their bench
-
top designs into
products.
Engin Arik, PhD,
Chairman,
Presid
ent
& CEO of Luminit commented "We a
re excited to add this new
line of Electronically Variable Diffusers to our established line
of Light Shaping Diffuser
s
. Going
forward, w
e expect to tailor these variable diffusers to many different customer
and OEM
requirements.
