FireBIRD DAI

The FireBIRD DAI (Direct Area Illumination) model by Oxford Lasers is a high-powered, short-pulsed laser illumination system specifically designed to meet the demands of high-speed and bright-event imaging. This robust system features a powerful 1000W laser head affixed directly to the output optics, ensuring an intense and focused illumination ideal for smaller, high-detail imaging areas. Engineered for precision and performance, the FireBIRD DAI excels in capturing high-quality images of dynamic and challenging processes, such as welding, ballistics, and other energetic events.

The FireBIRD DAI system synchronizes seamlessly with high-speed cameras, providing users with the ability to capture exceptionally detailed images of fast-paced events. Its machined aluminum case ensures durability, while the water-resistant housing adds an extra layer of protection for various operational environments. The computer-controlled, synchronized triggering enhances the versatility of this laser system, making it a reliable choice for a wide range of high-speed imaging applications.
