Optomet Vibrometer

Beyond clinical applications, vibrometers are valuable tools in research settings, helping to understand eye movement physiology and pathophysiology better.

The performance of an Optomet vibrometer is rooted in its digital-first architecture and advanced laser sources. optomet vibrometer

The working principle of a vibrometer involves attaching a small reflective marker to the eye or using a non-invasive method to track the eye's movements. The device then emits a beam of light towards the marker or the eye and measures the reflected beam's characteristics. By analyzing changes in the reflected beam, the device can calculate the amplitude, velocity, and frequency of eye movements. The device then emits a beam of light

Unlike traditional accelerometers or scanning LDVs, Optomet’s series is known for its and real-time digital decoding, making it suitable for both R&D and industrial field testing. When a laser beam hits a vibrating surface,

When a laser beam hits a vibrating surface, the reflected light's frequency shifts. If the surface moves toward the sensor, the light shifts "bluer" (higher frequency); if it moves away, it shifts "redder" (lower frequency).

A common pain point with vibrometry is "signal drop-out" if the object moves too much or too fast. Optomet’s digital decoders are robust, offering:

The field of optometric vibrometry is continuously evolving, with advancements aimed at improving accuracy, accessibility, and ease of use. Future developments may include:
