    R&D

    Being a technological leader in the optoelectronics industry, Union-Optech has comprehensive in-house development and production capabilities to ensure that every step from optical design and mold development to automated manufacturing is handled with high-level proficiency and technical precision. The company developed the world’s first full color imaging technology for low-light environments. With breakthrough innovations in fields such as optical image stabilization, aspheric/freeform optics, and optical waveguides, combined with nano-level precision processing capabilities, the company continues to raise the bar in industry standards. Global recognition of the company’s processes is backed by ISO 9001/14001/45001, GB/T 29490 international certifications.

    R&D Capabilities

    The company’s R&D expertise spans over a range of advanced technologies, such as low-light full color imaging technology, optical image stabilization (OIS), fast focus and zoom technologies, infrared confocal imaging technology, ultra-short focus technology, P-IRIS precision aperture control, freeform optics, anti-vibration simulation, ultra-low reflection technology, and finite element simulation.

    Low-Light Full Color Imaging Technology

    The low-light full color imaging technology fuses visible-light and near-infrared imaging into a single image. Visible-light imaging captures colors and details under normal conditions, while near-infrared imaging operates effectively in low-light environments. Built-in dual sensors capture both color and brightness information from the two light sources, and when combined, they deliver high-definition, true-to-life images even in dim settings.

    Optical Image Stabilization Technology

    At the core of the technology are electromagnetic mechanisms and highly reliable structural design, which allows precise control of micro-movements. OIS ensures high-quality imaging by reducing camera shake, even in low-light conditions, when shooting at long focus or close-ups. This is the first industrial-grade product to combine optical stabilization with automatic aperture control.

    Infrared Confocal Imaging Technology

    Infrared confocal imaging technology keeps images clear when switching between visible and infrared light. It reduces the need for refocusing and works well in mixed or low-light conditions.

    Infrared Confocal State
    White light mode White light mode
    Infrared light mode Infrared light mode

    In white light mode, the lens is focused for a clear image. When switched to infrared mode, the image stays almost the same in clarity.

    Advantages
    • Keeps images clear under mixed lighting
    • Cuts down on extra focusing and adjustments
    Shared optical path for different wavelengths
    Shared optical path for different wavelengths
    • Visible spectrum: 410–640 nm
    • Near-infrared spectrum: 850–940 nm
    • Achieves clear imaging of different spectra within the same optical system

    Ultra-low Reflection Technology

    Based on multi-layer light interference, and enhanced by vacuum evaporation coating and ion-assisted deposition, this technology achieves an ultra-low reflectance of less than 0.2% in the visible spectrum (400–700 nm). It improves image quality by greatly reducing ghosting and stray light in optical systems.
