Exploring LIDAR, Part II

Luna’s RIO Lasers developed proprietary PLANEX technology specifically to address the needs of optical sensing and meteorology where high coherence length and low noise are critical enabling specifications. In this second post of a 2-part series, we examine the performance further and examples of outcomes.

Luna’s Pipeline Monitoring System Ensures Integrity and Smooth Operations for Mining Operations in South America

Luna’s fiber-optic-based distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) system and OptaSense OS6™ real-time visualization software were deployed along the slurry line from a remote mining zone to a port hundreds of kilometers away. 

Exploring LIDAR, Part I

In this first of a two-part blog series, we take a closer look at LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology and its broad-reaching applications that impact many of our daily activities.

Luna Reflectometers - An Indispensable Tool for PDV System Diagnostics

Luna’s optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR) technology has facilitated PDV system development since the early days of PDV. The OBR 4600’s high spatial resolution reflectivity measurement and ability to characterize a complete optical path in one scan make it extremely useful as a diagnostic tool for PDV systems.

Benefits of Fiber Optic Sensing Versus Electrical Gages

Why do customers choose FOS over electrical gages? In this post we unpack why fiber optic sensing has overtaken electrical sensors. While electrical sensors have been the industry standard for over 80 years, they have limitations that make them a sub-optimal choice for many applications in which fiber optic sensors excel.
