Corning’s end-to-end solutions help increase optical precision, so customers can see the unseen What: SPIE Defense + Commercial Sensing Exhibition When: April 21 - 25, 2024 Where: Booth #1112, Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center, 193 Waterfront Street, National Harbor, Maryland 20745 Corning, N.Y. – Corning Incorporated (NYSE:GLW) will highlight cutting-edge innovations for the aerospace and defense industry at SPIE Defense + Commercial Sensing Exhibition, including the latest in hyperspectral-imaging technology. “From the far reaches of space to the depths of the ocean, Corning enables ground-breaking aerospace applications where precision matters,” said Scott Flint, Business Director, Corning Aerospace & Defense. “With our commitment to quality and collaboration, Corning delivers infrared, multispectral, and hyperspectral electro-optic systems that solve our customer’s toughest optical challenges.” Corning will showcase its customizable hyperspectral platform for low-Earth orbit. With a ground sampling distance of eight meters, the technology is capable of sensing from the ultraviolet to the short-wave infrared (400-2,500 nanometers). The platform’s remarkable onboard computing, storage, and processing capabilities deliver exceptional optical and sensor performance. It also includes a flexible electro-mechanical interface design suitable for a variety of host platforms and functions. At Booth #1112, visitors can view: A Large Aperture Primary Mirror Designed for Orbital Sidekick (OSK) This lightweight-aluminum primary mirror is a key component in the hyperspectral sensor for six of OSK’s GHOSt™ low-Earth-orbit satellites. Capturing nearly 500 bands of light, OSK uses the technology to pinpoint methane leaks across millions of miles of oil and gas pipelines, helping reduce global greenhouse gas emissions in the fight against climate change. Interactive Remote Sensing Demonstration This display will feature commercial hyperspectral technology in action with Corning’s microHSI™ family of hyperspectral sensors and systems. Visitors will be able to detect specific materials and conditions, like iron ore and crop ripeness, in a simulated Earth environment. Visitors will also see how Corning’s hyperspectral sensors are designed specifically for integration into highly compact, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and cost-efficient drones for terrestrial applications. In addition, Corning will showcase its microwave connectivity solutions, radomes, and glass-based telescope mirror and lens blank materials, including Corning® HPFS® Fused Silica and Corning® ULE® Glass. Corning experts will also lead two technical presentations, which guests are invited to attend: Theoretical principles and design practices for long-pass filter coatings When: April 22, 2024, 4:20-4:40 p.m. Location: Potomac 5 Presenter: Yongli Xu, Optical Coating Engineer Corning’s standard low earth orbit (LEO) hyperspectral imaging platform When: April 24, 2024, 11:10-11:30 a.m. Location: National Harbor 8 Presenter: Jesse Brown, Hyperspectral Integration Engineer For more information on Corning’s remote sensing solutions, visit www.corning.com/remotesensing.
