At this year’s Laser World of Photonics, TOPTICA EAGLEYARD demonstrated that Plug & Play is more than a product feature – it’s a mindset. With a booth designed to surprise, engage and inspire, and with new product launches, the company delivered a performance that left a lasting impression.
With a strong focus on plug & play laser integration, EAGLEYARD presented its new generation of compact, fiber-coupled laser diodes, including:
EAGLEYARD’s miniTAs complement the miniECLs or DFB lasers in a fully fiber-MOPA configuration, providing a compact, reliable alternative to high-maintenance and sensitive macroscopic laser systems. These new solutions open the door to a range of emerging use cases. The new fiber coupled miniECL and DFB at 795 nm are a game changer for example for Optically Pumped Magnetometers (OPMs) for biomedical diagnostics—offering room-temperature, portable alternatives to cryogenically-cooled SQUIDs for detecting weak bio-magnetic signals from the brain or heart.
For OEMs developing next-generation medical, sensing and quantum technology systems, this combination delivers a robust, scalable path forward—with lower complexity and higher reliability.
EAGLEYARD is committed to supporting the industrialization of photonic and quantum technologies with practical, field-deployable solutions.
But this year’s success wasn’t only technical – it was also emotional and visual:
More than 1,200 visitors helped build EAGLEYARD’s THINKING BEYOND wall, brick by brick. Over 1,000 guests walked away with their own mini EAGLEYARD rocket kits. And with 18,000 bricks, the team assembled a towering EAGLEYARD rocket live on-site – a powerful symbol for innovation, precision, and team spirit. Another highlight: Visitors were greeted by LUMY, EAGLEYARD’s friendly new mascot – cleverly assembled from elements of the company’s own product portfolio. With a mix of charm and photonics flair, LUMY became a true crowd favorite, posing for many selfies. Guests were even invited to help LUMY assemble a fiber-coupled miniECL in a fun, interactive body-tracking game, which quickly became a favorite stop.
Watch the highlight video and revisit the energy and dive deeper with voices straight from the show floor:
Michael Kneier, VP Sales & Marketing, shares how customers can benefit from EAGLEYARD’s space experience
Daniel Brauda, Sales & Product Manager, reveals what makes the miniECL and miniTA series not just smart, but game-changing
Claus Heitmann, CEO, reflects why he is so proud and elaborates on EAGLEYARD’s plans for the future
If you’re curious about the creation of the giant rocket, have a look at the timelapse video.
Watch the full recap, feel the momentum, and join EAGLEYARD as they continue to THINK BEYOND.
With a strong focus on plug & play laser integration, EAGLEYARD presented its new generation of compact, fiber-coupled laser diodes, including:
- DFB Laser @ 795 nm (Fiber-Coupled)
- miniECL @ 795 nm (Free-space & fiber-coupled external cavity lasers)
- miniECL @ 770 nm (Fiber-Coupled)
