Extreme Brilliance & High Temperature Sources - Eyewear and Camera Filters. Raptor Pyro Technical Performance Optics now enable successful viewing and Remote machine Vision Imaging of previously "hidden information" in liquid steel and many other brilliant combustion sources.
Numerous manufacturing processes "produce their own light. This includes the steel making industry along with many items manufactured in kilns and sintering furnaces. Specialized industrial methods often generate intensely brilliant illumination and
 
very high levels of ultraviolet and infrared radiation, even radio waves. These "bright-light sources" may be harmful for the human eye. Also, many intense "self-illuminating" manufacturing procedures (i.e., furnace flames, molten lave, rocket plumes, etc.) cannot be accurately focused and/or recorded using conventional industrial machine vision requiring film or video.

*Raptor Pyro Optical Eyewear Lenses

Raptor Pyro custom eyewear and camera filters combine advanced transmitted and reflective filtering techniques. Selective thin-film metal deposit coatings reflect specific wavelengths of light from the surface of the Raptor Pyro filter. The Patented optical plastic substrata of Raptor Pyro filters and lenses incorporate a sophisticated spectral curve that selectively attenuates other specific wavelengths of light passing though the material.
Pyro Optics allow many (but not all) combustion sources to be directly viewed. Custom fabricated Raptor Pyro filters absorb nearly all of the ultraviolet radiation (UVA and UVB) and reflect 95%+ of the near, mid, and far infrared (IR) spectrum.

The remaining, and less harmful, part of the "visual spectrum" is transmitted to the eye. Depending upon the specific intensity and frequency of the emitted radiation source, Raptor Pyro Optical eyewear lenses will usually provide enhanced "seeing ability" into the "bright light source" coupled with an improved level of vision safety.

Often, Raptor Pyro Optical eyewear can "sharpen the focus" and reduce "visual image fluttering" by filtering/reflecting "non-image forming" wavelengths of light that were previously being transmitted to the eye.

*Raptor Pyro Optical Camera Filters

Remote Industrial Machine Viewing Systems used to observe intensely "bright light sources" typically "bloom out" yielding a completely opaque white image. This white image seldom contains useful information. Pyro Optical Filters are specifically designed for use on still, video, and movie camera systems. These highly specialized camera filters permit significantly improved imaging and information-gathering capabilities.

Although invisible to the eye, film and video cameras are very sensitive to UV and IR radiation. The custom fabricated Raptor Pyro Filters absorb nearly all of the ultraviolet radiation (UVA and UVB) and reflect 95%+ of the near, mid, and far infrared (IR) spectrum. The remaining, and less harmful, part of the remaining "visual spectrum" is transmitted to the film or video.

Often, Raptor Pyro Optical camera filters can "sharpen the focus" and reduce "image fluttering" by filtering/reflecting "non-image forming" wavelengths of light that were previously being recorded by the film or electronic video chip.
