"Without the Stabilock II, we could not make most of the holograms we make. We depend on it”.
Rich Rallison, CEO Ralicon, Paridise, Utah
"We don't shoot exposures without our Stabilock II s. They are integral to our set ups.”
Steve Smith, MIT Media Lab, Cambridge, MA (former president of LaserSmith, Chicago, Ill.)
The Stabilock II is a second generation fringe stabilization system for path length compensation in holography and a variety of interferometric systems. When properly used in holography, excellent holograms can be created even in non ideal situations. In other interferometric applications, the Stabilock II can lock fringes still so they can be observed or controlled.
