Controller-driven azimuth and tilt compensation keeps a vehicle searchlight locked on a target, reducing pilot workload in dynamic flight.
An optical cavity and movable mirrors boost pulse laser intensity in aircraft while cutting weight, size, and defense system cost.
Heteroepitaxy of compound semiconductors on silicon extends photodetector wavelength range and sensitivity while staying CMOS-compatible.
Camera and aircraft-state data automate exterior light switching to cut pilot workload, reduce errors, and conserve energy.
Equal optical path lengths let one mode-matched laser beam feed multiple power amplifiers with consistent beam shaping and simpler calibration.
Moveable linkages define glass curvature during cold forming, cutting optical distortion, adhesive stress, and tooling cost.
Magnetic rotor holding keeps a retractable aircraft headlight stable in stowed and operating positions without adding bulky mechanical brakes.
Through-thickness waveguides and thermal insulation let an RF surface aperture handle extreme heat while protecting electronics and limiting RF loss.
A projector-based curved cockpit display combines a projection lens, touch film, and haptic feedback to fit complex surfaces and improve interaction.
Multi-quantum wells and a V-pit layer let one LED chip emit yellow-to-white light without phosphors or multiple LEDs, cutting loss and complexity.
