Explore innovations shaping the future of mapping, automation, and 3D sensing.
Understand the Doppler effect’s role in scanning laser vibrometers and laser Doppler vibrometry. Explain how the vibration information can be used to extract relative displacements. Discover Ommatidia’s Q1 & Q2 Laser RADAR innovations for reliable vibration measurement in automotive and industrial applications.
Printed circuit boards used in space, defence, aeronautics, and transportation must endure extreme vibration without failure. Traditional accelerometer-based testing can’t reveal how individual components behave under load. Ommatidia’s massively parallel Laser Doppler Vibrometry (LDV) and Laser RADAR technology enable non-contact, high-resolution vibration analysis across entire PCBs—identifying failure-prone areas, validating designs, and ensuring reliability in critical applications.
Traditional modal analysis can take days of setup and scanning to capture vibration data point by point. With Ommatidia LiDAR’s Q2 Laser RADAR, full-field quantitative modal analysis is completed in just 20 minutes. This walkthrough explains how parallel-beam laser radar delivers precise, non-contact 3D metrology and vibrometry across hundreds of points simultaneously—transforming how researchers, engineers, and testing labs measure structural dynamics.
Remote Sound Sensing with Laser RADAR introduces a new way to capture acoustic information — not with microphones, but with light. Using Ommatidia LiDAR’s massively parallel FMCW technology, sound waves and vibrations can be detected remotely through precise laser interferometry. This enables real-time, contact-free analysis of structures, machinery, and environments, unlocking new possibilities in industrial diagnostics, aerospace testing, and acoustic research.
Patras, Greece | May 6, 2025 — Ommatidia LiDAR led a hands-on workshop at the University of Patras, showcasing the Q2 Laser RADAR: the world’s first massively parallel FMCW LiDAR for contactless vibrometry and 3D metrology. Discover how this breakthrough technology is reshaping research and industry applications across aerospace, wind energy, railways, and more.
