•Hand Held Directional Reflectometer

Client Need:

Client needed to design a Hand-Held Directional Reflectometer (HHDR) to make rapid in situ measurements of the infrared (IR) reflection properties of materials in field environments.

3-D Engineering Solution:

3-D Engineering was responsible for the development, testing and delivery of prototype and production level units that successfully met all design and performance objectives which included: Illumination by a broad-band infrared beam at a user-established angle of incidence, directing an ellipsoidal mirror and lens combination onto an IR imaging focal plane array (FPA), establishing a method to ascertain the detector response, interpret a quantitative measurement of the angular distribution of the reflected light, calculating the angular distribution of reflectance and determining the total reflectance, etc.

Results:

All elements of the project were successfully executed and delivered by 3-D Engineering on schedule, within budget and in accordance with the Statement of Work.
