Product Overview
Precision Retroreflectors
Corner cube prisms, or retroreflectors, are specialized optical elements designed to reflect incident light back towards its source, regardless of the prism's orientation. Constructed from three mutually perpendicular reflecting surfaces, they ensure that exiting light remains parallel to the incident beam after three internal reflections. These components are essential in demanding applications such as surveying, laser ranging, and high-precision optical alignment.
