Most LDV's in the industry are table-top systems which are large and difficult to set up. Getting results requires a user with experience in beam alignment. MSE's miniLDV replaces this with a probe and two small electronics boxes. The user doesn't need to spend hours setting up the sensor—and this leaves more time to perform measurements and collect valuable data. (read more)
