Product Development
Our core competency in optical engineering allows us to provide optically-based design for any product or application
Where other optical consulting firms might offer only lens design services, Optikos has built its reputation on providing our clients with access to broadly skilled optical problem solvers who provide solutions and continuity of support throughout the product development cycle.
Your design can range from any single a là carte technical solution to complete product development through manufacturing.
And at project completion, you own the design.
The Optikos Management System is registered by Intertek as conforming to the requirements of:

Diverse Skillsets offer Efficient Problem Solving
Diverse Skillsets offer Efficient Problem Solving
Optikos engineers team up according to the demands of the job—bringing together specialties not only in optics, but also in physics, mechanics, opto-mechanics, electronics, software, and automation.
These diverse teams and skill sets enable Optikos to offer a range of engineering skills and experience for optically-based product development that is not typically encountered or developed in most in-house engineering departments or independent consultancies.
Our engineering teams thrive in a culture of efficient problem solving, and are experienced at joining a project at any phase of the development cycle—from conceptual work to fixing existing products that don’t work. We understand the sometimes-unpredictable nature of moving products to market and we’re well-prepared to deal with it.

My First Year At Optikos, With Sam O’Connor, Optical Engineer
What’s it like to step from the university benches directly into the intense, multi-disciplinary world of optical engineering? What challenges and benefits define a typical day-to-day routine at a leading optical engineering hub? Sam O’Connor, a fresh graduate of the prestigious Institute of Optics from the University of Rochester, sheds light on what his journey […]
Planning The Future Of Thermal Camera Testing At AutoSens Europe 2025
In the United States, more than three-quarters of pedestrian fatalities happen after dark.[1] Nighttime pedestrian collisions at intersections have an 83% higher chance of being fatal without street lighting.[2] The severity of pedestrian safeguarding has prompted the US Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to finalize a new Federal Motor Vehicle Safety […]
From Headlight Glare to Autonomous Driving: How Optikos Stray Light Testing Rules the Road in 2025
Stray light is the invisible enemy of every professional automaker in 2025. Want to build a car with adaptive headlights? You’ll need to test for stray light. Looking to develop the next craze in Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS)? You’ll run into LiDAR technology, which needs to be vetted for stray light interference. Basically, every new […]
