Optical Metrology
B-Con works with techniques such as infra-red interferometry, which is used to gauge the quality of optical components. Classic light interferometry is the key to measuring immense distances across space, and now atom interferometers are being developed to increase navigational accuracy here on Earth.
Precise optical metrology is one of B-Con's key capabilities. We deliver precision optical systems at all product stages -- from prototypes to production.
Opto-Mechanical Integration
B-con has earned its reputation in aerospace optics because of its depth of experience in the fields of laser systems integration, optical design and fabrication. This experience makes B-Con Engineering, in this age of opto-mechanical integration, a valued partner in the aerospace sector. | Optoelectronics Integration
Aerospace optronics is generally understood as the science and technology of combining optics and electronics to generate and study photons. B-Con's strengths in optics integration and optics manufacturing make us the ideal choice for your aerospace project. |
Military Optics - Night Vision, Infrared Spectroscopy & More
The military optics field represents the leading edge of many technologies, including night vision, infrared spectrometry, and heads-up displays (HUD). B-Con Engineering has performed aerospace contracts in these areas, and in many others related to military optics.
B-Con is certified under the Controlled Goods Program (CGP) of Public Works and Government Services Canada, complies with all International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), and works with many prime US vendors in the military optics sector.

Reliable, Cost-Effective Plastic Optics Production
B-Con caters to customers who need reliable, cost-effective solutions for medium- and high-volume production of plastic optical components. B-Con is your turnkey provider for optical design, injection moulding, thin film coatings, and assembly and testing of plastic optics components and assemblies.
Display Optics - Display Imaging Technology
B-Con Engineering designs and prototypes display optics for advanced applications such as 180º panoramic displays for flight simulators and smaller zone displays for training. B-Con's experience with the display imaging technology used in flight simulator optics and other custom display scenarios makes us the ideal partner to design and prototype advanced optical systems for commercial applications.
Commercial Display Optics
The commercial popularity of plastic optics continues to grow, and B-Con's optical design engineers continue to develop display imaging technology for many demanding applications. B-Con's partnership with Pufferfish Displaysis one such commercial success story. B-Con designed, developed and manufactures the advanced lens system for the imaging display of Pufferfish’s Puffersphere Pro digital video globe. B-Con's projection lens system for spherical format rear screen projection enables dazzling presentations - for entertainment events, large format displays, marketing, and any number of other applications where visual impact is critical. | Injection Molded Plastic Optics
B-Con also understands the supply chain issues inherent in high volume plastic optics production. Our relationships with numerous high-quality injection moulding suppliers will simplify your production process. |
Automotive Optics - Applied Optics & Optics Design
The keys to effective automotive optics design are efficient light production and efficient use of the produced light. B-Con's applied optics capabilities include integrating diodes and lens systems to create effective automotive illumination with low power consumption.
Applied optics and precision optics design are visible to the automobile-buying public in low-power, diode-based fog lamps and head lamps, and in other automotive illumination applications. However, these automotive optics applications just scratch the surface of actual and potential applications within the automotive industry. B-Con's advanced automotive optics capabilities include heads up displays (HUDs) much like those that, until now, were used only in military aircraft.
Automotive Metrology
Automotive metrology - measuring process and component precision - is key to quality and process control in the automotive industry. B-Con manufactures and integrates optical components for automotive metrology and spectroscopy applications.
