LightPath engineers full-range imaging solutions designed to solve real-world OEM challenges. From infrared optical design to production quality, our systems empower you to build better products, integrate seamlessly, and win more business.
We specialize in crafting custom infrared solutions for thermal imaging, from rugged industrial monitoring systems to mission-critical defense platforms. Now strengthened by our acquisition of G5 Infrared, we offer expanded capabilities in optical gas imaging, broadband infrared cameras, and long-range system integration, giving OEMs an unmatched advantage.
Our cooled zoom cameras are designed for applications where distance and detail matter most. With optimized system-level design, cold-shield efficiency, and advanced optical coatings, they deliver repeatable high-resolution imagery even in challenging environments.
Optical Gas Imaging Cameras – Methane and other VOCs
Reliable leak detection for compliance and safety
Engineered to detect methane and other hydrocarbons in real time, our OGI cameras provide high sensitivity and consistent performance for environmental monitoring and industrial safety. With LightPath, OEMs can deliver systems that meet strict compliance standards while minimizing false alarms.
Built for environments where extremes are standard. Our US-made furnace camera cores and optics are designed for borescope-matched alignment, rugged reliability, and seamless interop (NTSC/PAL, CameraLink, GigE, USB), helping OEMs deliver quality in harsh industrial conditions.
A single camera that “sees it all.” Mantis’s 2–14 µm broadband range and achromatic lens design eliminate the need for refocus, offering simplified integration and ultra‑low SWaP. OEMs benefit from streamlined design and fast-to-market deployment. Use cases:
