Optical design and analysis for space imaging and optical sensing. Client names are withheld.

Published studies cover a toolkit that scores space lenses for image quality and point-source detection, and a feasibility study of LED light into a small fiber.

### Typical problems

- Candidate space lenses need a repeatable score for imaging and for dim-object detection, with every assumption labeled.
- An LED coupled into a small fiber needs a bound on what any added optic can do before a custom part is tooled.
