SPIE Photonics Europe 2026

Join us at SPIE Europe 12-16 April 2026 in Strasbourg, France. Lieven will present a paper on Hybrid meta-surface lens system for long wave infrared applications and give a product demonstration on metaoptics design using PlaOpSimSW.

Visit our booth to:

  • Explore how predictive simulation accelerates optical and meta-optics design
  • See real design examples and use cases
  • Discuss your design challenges with our experts
  • Learn how system-level insight can prevent costly late-stage surprises

Come meet us! Our booth number is Booth 130.
