We are the first company in the world to receive first prize in the VISION Award in Europe, and are the first lighting company to do so. Our V-ISA Method Lighting, which overturns conventional wisdom about lighting, enables us to capture differential images in a single shot at the level of an electron microscope, with a theoretical depth resolution of picometers, simply by irradiating light that is new to mankind, using visible light, a standard lens, and a standard camera. We will be exhibiting the VISA-50 with a standard field of view, the VISA-100L with a wide field of view, and the VISA-03L with high magnification.
Lumafield
Lumafield is comprised of engineers with deep experience across the product development cycle, from initial ideas to shipping hardware, across industries and specializations, who became frustrated by the cost and complexity of modern manufacturing. We started with industrial CT scanning, which for us was the most valuable but underutilized tool in the manufacturing toolbox, enabling us to rapidly inspect essential components non-destructively. We rebuilt the whole system, from X-ray capture, to computer vision analysis, to web-based collaboration, to the entire business model, making the most advanced manufacturing tech more accessible to every industry. | Lumafield was founded in 2019 to upgrade manufacturing. We are engineers with deep experience across the product development cycle, from initial ideas to shipping hardware, across industries and specializations, who became frustrated by the cost and complexity of modern manufacturing. So we decided to upgrade it. | Lumafield was founded in 2019 by a team of engineers with experience in designing, manufacturing, and shipping products with global impacts. Their firsthand experience going from first sketches to mass manufacturing highlighted a major gap in the product development process. While products and fabrication technologies had become more complex and sophisticated, the debugging tools that engineers used to solve their design problems were stuck in the 19th century. Engineers can only do their best work when they have access to the best tools. When engineers are at their best, the products they deliver are more functional, cost-effective, and sustainable. Lumafield empowers engineers to see their work in a new light with the power of X-ray vision. | Lumafield was founded in 2019 to upgrade manufacturing.We are engineers with deep experience across the product development cycle, from initial ideas to shipping hardware, across industries and specializations, who became frustrated by the cost and complexity of modern manufacturing.
