CALIPSO Launches!   (View Artist's Rendering)

"The primary instrument of the CALIPSO mission is the three-channel LIDAR, and the heart of it is the Fibertek laser transmitter. The value of laser-based sensor systems has been demonstrated repeatedly in ground and aircraft missions. The extension of this capability to space is essential to improving our ability to characterize clouds and aerosols and their role in the earth's climate system, which cannot be satisfied by passive sensors.”
-- Customer, NASA Langley Research Center
"When I joined the company, I found the employees to be friendly and welcoming. There is an extensive variety of expertise at Fibertek, which generates a unique synergy in the envronment. It is evident that Fibertek cares about its employees.”

-- Mindy Fakhoury, Resource Manager

Preview data from Fibertek's Airborne LIDAR Sensor System.

This data was collected by an airborne LIDAR sensor developed by Fibertek. The laser is eye safe, and operates at 1.5 microns with a repetition rate of 65 kHz.

The possibilities for 3D LIDAR imaging are extremely exciting. This cutting-edge technology has numerous potential commerical, governmental and military applications.
