The design of the Fast Steering Mirror (FSM) incorporates a mirror mounted to a flexure support system that may be tilted to direct a laser beam or other light source. A set of actuators, including voice coils or piezoelectric devices, are used to provide the directional motion. The system offers both open-loop and closedloop operation. For closed-loop operation, integrated high-speed precision sensors are used to provide a complete feedback control system. With its modular design, the FSM allows increased flexibility in mirror substrate choice, aperture size, degrees of tilt and control electronics to meet any mission requirements.

Our fundamental mission is to ensure the continued precision performance of your cameras in the field.

Our products and solutions play mission critical roles in some of the harshest environments across all domains. Customers depend on these maintenance services for their rugged reliability and performance in the field.

Our Customer Service operation works closely with users to maximize the, performance, reliability and up time of our mission critical imaging systems. We have established long term relationships with defense, homeland, commercial and international communities for logistics, support and depot.
