At Avantier, we produce high quality optics for a wide variety of applications and have the ability to work with our partners to design and manufacture precision optical systems that meet their highly specific needs.  Markets we serve include aerospace and defense, the automotive industry, life science research, medical device industry, and the AR/MR/VR industry, as well as other industry and consumer applications. Our extensive experience and comprehensive manufacturing abilities have made us the optics provider of choice for enterprises, organizations, and individuals worldwide.

Aerospace & Defense

Optics for aerospace and defense are subject to stringent requirements and must be built for reliable performance under demanding circumstances and in unfavorable environments. We produce lightweight, durable optics with high thermal stability quotients and the ability to perform consistently in harsh environments and poor visual conditions.

Our optical components can be found in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), thermal imaging systems, communication systems, surveillance systems, security cameras, and targeting systems. Our clients know that when they incorporate an Avantier piece into their system, they are working with quality they can count on.

AR/MR/VR

In augmented reality/mixed reality/virtual reality (AR/MR/VR), advances in optics are leading to a more immersive user experience that eliminates or minimizes visual strain, eye fatigue, and annoyances like vergence accommodation conflict (VAC) and focal rivalry. At Avantier, we are at the forefront of experimentation in this realm and can help you produce high performance headsets that provide your users with an optimal user experience.

Automobiles

As self-driving vehicles move into the mainstream and drivers learn to rely on rear vision and night vision cameras, the automotive industry is turning to optics to provide the complex systems that provide these imaging technologies. Avantier can produce components and systems for visible cameras, solid state light detection and ranging (LIDARs), long wave infrared (LWIR) cameras and 3D cameras, as well as fiber optic systems for real time responsiveness in electronic systems.

Consumer Optics

Optics in the consumer industry include the minuscule lenses in your phone’s camera, the multi-part lenses in a professional camera, and the seeing eye in your robotic vacuum cleaner. They span the range from simple to complex, from minuscule to oversized. Some are passive eyepieces, while others are active devices that interact directly with the world through optical pieces.

Industrial

Industrial markets are relying more and more on machine vision for process automation and reliable optics are crucial for this. We produce the optical components that provide process surveillance and real-time feedback as well as optical systems that take an active part in the industrial process, from materials processing to photolithography. We use design for manufacturing (DFM) principles to design and produce systems optimized for your budget, timeline, and specific optical needs. 

Medical Devices & Life Science Research

Avantier also produce optics for both medical devices and life science research. From the complex optical systems used for laser assisted surgery to the minuscule lenses utilized in an endoscope, our precision optical components and systems are crafted with the unique needs of medical profession and life science researchers in mind.  Whether you need high performance lenses for biological research or affordable, high quality components for medical devices, we have you covered.

Security & Surveillance

Optical design and imaging solutions are crucial in the security and surveillance industry. Choosing the right optical lens, image sensor, and filters are essential for high-quality images. Optical design also plays a vital role in video analytics, and image processing algorithms can enhance facial recognition. Lighting solutions such as infrared and white-light LED lighting can improve image quality. Understanding these considerations can help designers develop effective security and surveillance systems.
