Building Electro-Optical Systems: Making it All Work, provides a systematic and accessible presentation of the practical lore of electro-optical instrumentdesign and construction. Constructing modern electro-optical instruments likemicroscopes, cameras, optical inspection equipment, spectometers, CD and DVD players is one of the most interdisciplinary activities in engineering. This book acts as a subdiciplinary bridge, filling gaps between physics, electrical engineering, optical engineering and computer science by those working on instruments to see their project as a whole and understand step-by-step the ‘hows’and ‘whys’ of building electro-optical systems. The reader becomes an expert designer with minimum trial and error. The new information in this edition is essential for researchers, scientists and students in optical laboratories. The book covers new developments since 1998-9, when the first edition was written, replacing it with the latest technology and expanded coverage of topics that include detectors, lasers, photon budgets, signal processing scheme planning, and front ends. Also included is a brand new chapter on mechanics and motion.
