Optical Imaging Systems for Optometry & Ophthalmology

JADAK’s custom optical imaging solutions empower OEMs to enhance diagnostic accuracy in their Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and fundus systems. 

Optometrists and ophthalmologists depend on the latest technology not only to deliver thorough eye exams but also to minimize discomfort for patients during these exams. OCT imaging and fundus cameras are critical in helping healthcare professionals to diagnose, monitor, and treat eye conditions in a less invasive manner. JADAK’s FPGA camera software equips healthcare OEMs with a fully customizable optical imaging system that provides precise visualization of the inner eye to improve diagnostic results and patient outcomes.

OCT Imaging Solutions 

JADAK’s OCT cameras and FPGA software deliver high-resolution, cross-sectional images essential for diagnosing and monitoring complex eye conditions. Our Line Scan Cameras capture images at very high speeds, significantly reducing acquisition time, while providing high axial resolution crucial for precise tissue and structure thickness measurements. JADAK’s integration of low-coherence interferometry with near-infrared light provides depth-resolved information that OEMs can easily integrate into their optical imaging systems.

Fundus and Optical Imaging System Components

JADAK’s optical imaging systems for fundus cameras ensure that eye care professionals can capture high-fidelity, detailed, two-dimensional images of the interior surface of the eye, including the retina, optic disc, and macula, crucial for basic screening and documentation of retinal health. JADAK’s Area Scan and Streaming Camera technology enhances the clarity and accuracy of these images, providing essential support for optometrists in their diagnostic processes.

Machine Vision Line Scan Cameras

JADAK’s machine vision streaming line scan camera is designed to capture high-resolution images at high speed, one pixel line at a time. Used in OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography), as well as other applications that require fast, high-resolution image processing, our machine vision line cameras are all customizable to business’ precise needs.  

Optimal Sensor Selection: Our optical imaging systems leverage high-quality sensors sourced from multiple vendors to ensure optimum performance for your applications.

Custom Form Factors: Our tailored solutions comprising board-level designs, cooled sensors, and custom I/O configurations are designed to be customizable and scalable to meet your specific needs. 

Advanced Image Processing: Our expertise allows us to integrate custom image processing, unique modes, and other processing capabilities directly into the camera’s FPGA for: 

  • Real time image processing: Load OCT image processing algorithms  
    directly on the FPGA processor; capture the needed images without communicating with the CPU 
  • FPGA increases the speed of operation and improves operator experience by reducing sensor noise, pre-processing and enhancing the image 

Enhanced Image Quality: By utilizing FPGA technology, we effectively reduce sensor noise, pre-process, and enhance images for superior quality. 

Integrated System Electronics: We can incorporate additional system electronics into the camera design, reducing overall system costs and boosting performance
