Optical Tables and Breadboards
-
At Kinetic Systems, we’ve taken the guesswork out of selecting optical tables and vibration control equipment. Our honeycomb vibration isolation optical tables provide cost-effective solutions for virtually any application. For extremely sensitive applications in severe or unknown vibration environments, we recommend our highly damped 5300 Series honeycomb optical table with Active-Air vibration isolation. For normal or moderate environments we offer economical, broadband-damped tables such as our 5200 Series or 5100 Series with either Active-Air Isolators or Modular Rigid Supports.

SparkFun Distance Sensor
1.3 Meter, VL53L4CD (Qwiic)
-
This SparkFun Distance Sensor Breakout utilizes the VL53L4CD next generation ToF (Time of Flight) sensor module to give you the highly accurate measurements at short ranges for its size. The VL53L4CD from STMicroelectronics uses a VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) to emit an infrared laser to time the reflection to the target. That means that you will be able to measure the distance to an object from 1mm to 1300mm away with millimeter resolution! To make it even easier to get your readings, all communication is enacted exclusively via I2C, utilizing our handy Qwiic system so no soldering is required to connect it to the rest of your system. However, we still have broken out 0.1”-spaced pins in case you prefer to use a breadboard.

Tiny AVR Programmer
-
The ATtiny45 and 85 are a couple of really cool little MCUs but did you know you can program them in Arduino? That's right, now you can shrink your Arduino projects down to "tiny size" by moving your code straight over to these small but capable ICs. The standard method for programming the ATtiny ICs involves a breadboard, lots of jumper wires and a hardware programmer, but David Mellis over at MIT Media Lab has simplified the process by laying out this handy USB programmer.

Optomechanics
-
Welcome to Thorlabs; below you will find links to our extensive Optomechanical product line, a subset of our entire line of photonics products. Optomechanics is a broad category that includes optical tables and breadboards, optical mounts and construction components, mechanical devices with integrated electronics, kits that make it easy to buy a popular set of components or a set of components that can be assembled to perform a specific function, and general laboratory supplies and tools. Because of the large selection, Optomechanics does not include translation and rotation stages and their controllers; instead those products have their own category.
