Clemens to Direct Engineering at Headwall Photonics
Peter Clemens has joined Headwall Photonics as director of engineering and development, the maker of hyperspectral imaging spectrometers announced Thursday.
Before joining Headwall, Clemens spent more than 30 years working on the design and development of optical imaging platforms at BAE Systems.
During his tenure at BAE, Clemens held many roles in systems engineering, engineering management and operations. His experience resulted in more than 50 different imaging products advancing from design development into full-scale production, Headwall said. While he was there, the company transitioned from Honeywell electro-optics to Loral infrared imaging systems to Lockeed Martin imaging systems before becoming BAE Systems.
"With experience working for four of the world's top scientific engineering companies, Pete brings a broad base of technical expertise and engineering management to Headwall's product development and engineering initiatives," said Headwall CEO David Bannon.
Clemens most recently served as technical director of operations at BAE.

Glossary
- hyperspectral imaging
- Hyperspectral imaging is an advanced imaging technique that captures and processes information from across the electromagnetic spectrum. Unlike traditional imaging systems that record only a few spectral bands (such as red, green, and blue in visible light), hyperspectral imaging collects data in numerous contiguous bands, covering a wide range of wavelengths. This extended spectral coverage enables detailed analysis and characterization of materials based on their spectral signatures.
Key...
- spectrometer
- A kind of spectrograph in which some form of detector, other than a photographic film, is used to measure the distribution of radiation in a particular wavelength region.
