Laser Solutions Team to Release Two New Products at Laser World of Photonics in Munich

Tucson, AZ — Leonardo Electronics US, formally Lasertel, a leading U.S. supplier of custom laser diodes, is proud to announce the release of two new direct diode laser illuminators. The laser products are engineered for short and long range lidar (light imaging, detection, and ranging) systems for self-driving cars.

The laser solutions team will be exhibiting these two new products, alongside their latest work in custom photon solutions, June 26-29 at Laser World of Photonics in Munich, Germany at Booth 208, Hall A3. Leonardo will be showcasing capabilities in three major industries: automotive lidar, medical and industrial.

“The High Beam™ and Low Beam™ laser illuminator products are our latest cutting-edge technology for the automotive lidar industry. With pulse widths less than 20ns, these products offer variable powers with the laser diode source, control electronics and beam shaping optics in an integrated module,” said Robert Walker, Director of Sales and Marketing.

Leonardo’s latest white paper, The Race to the Starting Line: Edge-Emitting Diode Lasers vs. VCSELS for the Automotive Lidar Market, will be made available at the Munich conference in Leonardo’s booth. This paper compares how the two competing laser diode technologies fare as active illuminators for system integrators in automotive applications.
