Optical Design & Consulting · Vancouver, WA, USA
Optical design that ships.
Optiryx takes your product from optical concept to qualified, manufacturable hardware: imaging, illumination, and laser systems designed by senior engineers. When we're done, every design belongs entirely to you.
Optical Systems
We start at the system, not the afterthought.
Most optical problems are set in motion long before anyone thinks about components. Optiryx engineers the whole system from first concept, imaging, illumination, laser, and sensing, through toleranced, production-ready designs.
Getting in early is the point. The hard component decisions, the ones that quietly determine whether a product performs, are made with intent from the start rather than patched in later.

The components others outsource and hope for.
The industry treats hard components as bundled, tightly coupled to whoever fabricates them. We design them independently, to your system's needs, so the part that defines performance is engineered on purpose and stays yours to build anywhere.
Filters & Coatings
Thin-film stacks to your spectrum: bandpass, dichroic, notch, edges, reflectors.
Diffractive Optics
DOEs for beam shaping, splitting, and wavefront control.
Diffusers
Engineered scatter for uniformity, homogenization, and defined angles.
Microlens Arrays
Array optics for sensing, illumination, and beam homogenization.
Gratings
Dispersive and spectral elements designed to your bands.
Metasurfaces
Meta-optics for compact, flat control of phase and polarization.
Freeform & Aspheres
Non-rotationally-symmetric surfaces where spheres fall short.
Optical Packages
Assemblies and packaging engineered for the whole build.
Engagements
However deep you need us.
From a focused review to a complete program, always with senior attention and designs that stay yours.
Design Review & Feasibility
An independent expert pass on your design or concept, covering tolerancing, risk, and manufacturability, before you commit the budget.
Supply Chain & Build
Vendor selection, quoting, qualification, and production ramp, without adding permanent overhead.
Technology Strategy
Roadmapping and build-vs-buy guidance grounded in optics reality, so your next product decision is an informed one.
Applications
Where we work

Imaging & Camera Systems
Lens and sensor systems engineered for resolution, low light, and cost.
3D Sensing & ToF / LiDAR
Depth and ranging optics: time-of-flight, structured light, scanning.
Computational Imaging
Optics and algorithms co-designed to see beyond a conventional lens.
Spectroscopy & Sensing
Wavelength-resolved instruments for measurement, detection, analysis.
Illumination & Laser Systems
Beam shaping, uniformity, and power handling for demanding sources.
Machine Vision & Industrial
Robust optical systems for inspection, automation, and the factory floor.

About Optiryx
Independent. Senior. Accountable.
Optiryx is an independent optical design consultancy based in Vancouver, Washington. Clients come to us when a product depends on optics working, and when they want the work done by senior engineers, not handed down a bench.
We keep engagements lean on purpose: rapid results, honest technical guidance, and efficient supply chains, with your intellectual property remaining uniquely yours.
