Request InfoTRIOPTICS GmbHTrioptics has launched the PrismMaster HR goniometer series for angle measurement on optical prisms and polygons for applications in manufacturing and research. With an accuracy of 0.2 arcsec, the device features an autocollimator with an enlarged field of view to facilitate measurement. Compared with the original SR series, the HR series features various technical advances, plus user-friendly software. Without the need for added accessories, it performs direct-angle and refractive-index measurement in transmission, enabled by intelligent software.See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics Spectra July 2023 IssueCurved Display GoniometerThe DMS 904 goniometer from Instrument Systems GmbH is designed for the optical characterization of large and curved displays.
