Lamda Guard's technology is unique

Lamda Guard’s patent pending metamaterial thin film is designed to prevent harmful laser light from reaching the eyes, without interfering with the ability to see clearly. It can block multiple laser colors simultaneously (e.g. green and blue) and stops light from wider angles than currently available products. Existing laser protection solutions including, safety goggles, glare shields and reflectors, interfere with night-time vision.

Airplane manufacturers and airlines can benefit from this technology by offering flight crews full protection from the threat of laser attacks during flight. Lamda Guard’s solution can also be used on a range of personal protective eyewear such as glasses, goggles and helmet shields.

Our optical metamaterial designs offer unique light manipulation benefits that can be exploited to create the next generation of optical devices for the 21st century, in a scalable and cost effective manner.

What are metamaterials?

Metamaterials are fashioned from conventional microscopic materials such as metals or plastics, but the materials are usually arranged in periodic patterns. Therefore, metamaterials gain their properties not from their composition, but from their exactingly-designed structures.

Our engineers use in house developed software to design the precise shape, geometry, size, orientation and arrangement to affect light in an unconventional manner, creating nano-composites which are unachievable with conventional materials.
