A major stream of activity at the Brien Holden Vision Institute is the custom design and production of novel specialised instruments to support its research projects. The devices are designed for the examination and measurement of ocular parameters and visual correction devices, providing specific mechanical, optical and physical property data upon request.technology_daf

Supported by specialised in-house facilities, the Technology group comprises highly-skilled engineers, scientists, optometrists and technicians who offer tremendous collective knowledge and skills related to:

  • instrument design and development
  • software development and engineering, especially in data and image acquisition and analysis
  • precision optical and biomedical engineering
  • metrology work specialising in ophthalmic and optical components and devices

The group work closely with project staff to design and custom-build equipment necessary to proceed with a particular research study.

New technology brings unique capabilities and understanding to research and represents valuable Intellectual Property and many instruments are patented or with patents pending.

The instruments have also proved to be of interest to other researchers and industry and on request the Institute is able to produce replica devices for use in collaborating organisations or for sale to industry or other researchers.
