Underwater Lens Design
Introduction to the Project This was a fun project and a pretty unique one too. Our customer was looking to acquire high-resolution imagery underwater, and they’d built some prototypes using a lens you might find in a Nikon or Canon camera and came to us asking if we could create a corrector window for that lens to give us the

Why Choose Optikos

A Flexible Resource

Optikos provides agile and scalable manufacturing services for complex optical and opto-mechanical assemblies across industries such as medical devices, diagnostics, defense, aerospace, life sciences, and consumer imaging. With a robust engineering foundation built into every stage of production, we help you streamline build-to-print readiness, reduce manufacturing cycle times, and produce units that meet stringent performance and quality standards.

Our expanded manufacturing facility in Wakefield, Massachusetts includes dedicated cleanrooms, laminar flow stations, micron-level alignment capabilities, and integrated in-house metrology — all designed to support builds from small pilot runs to recurring production scaling into tens of thousands of units. This is supported by our modular manufacturing floor, enabling fast reconfiguration for unique build requirements. 

And with integrated metrology and testing, quality is engineered into production. Our LensCheck®, OpTest®, and other metrology systems are used inline to verify performance at every critical stage, minimizing rework and maintaining consistent output that conforms to customer specifications.
