Product description
Built on the proven Ruby™ platform, Garnet eliminates the use of Germanium - an increasingly constrained infrared material - while maintaining the high-performance imaging required for defense and surveillance applications. No Chalcogenide materials are used in this lens series, making them supplier-agnostic, further strengthening supply chain resilience.
Designed for operation across the 3–5 µm wavelength range, Garnet enables system designers to preserve optical performance while improving long-term supply chain resilience.
The Garnet series is optimized for mission-critical applications, including intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR), border security, and target detection systems - where both performance and material availability are non-negotiable. If you need supply-resilient MWIR optics, opt for Garnet.
