Join us for an exclusive look at the shortlisted entries for this year’s Photonics Frontiers Award 2025.

In this exclusive webcast - the second in a series of three - we take a look at the entrants and their applications who have made it to the ‘semi-finals’ of this showcase of the most innovative projects that use photonics to solve problems across the most popular industry sectors

Where The Photonics100 celebrates people, The Photonics Frontiers Award celebrates the application of photonics.

Now our independent judges have made their decision, we hear from the shortlisted applications in the fields of imaging technologies and optical communications and networking.

Discover the entries which made the cut

Short wavelength infrared (SWIR) 3D laser line profile sensors for outdoor applications in the agricultural, transportation, logistics, and construction markets

A solder-reflow resistant injection molded thermoplastic micro-lens array for optical coupling

Hear about these innovative applications, and others, ahead of the overall winner being announced at this year’s Laser World of Photonics. Moderating the webcast will be Electro Optics’ James Wormald, with additional guest Brian Manning (Chroma Technologies Senior Application Scientist).
