Abstract: The present disclosure discloses an optical module package structure and method thereof. The optical module includes a substrate, a shield, a photosensitive unit and a cover. The shield is disposed on the top of the substrate and forms a first housing space with the upper surface of the substrate. The photosensitive unit is disposed on the substrate and located in the first housing space. The shield has a light-receiving part above the photosensitive unit. At least one notch is on the outer surface of the shield. A cushion is disposed on the notch and protrudes on the upper surface of the shield. The cover is disposed on the cushion(s) and kept a constant distance to the upper surface of the shield by contacting with the cushion(s).

Abstract: A wireless optical communication receiver is provided. The optical receiver includes an arrangement of wavelength shifting fibres preferably encased within a protective shroud. The wavelength shifting fibres provide an efficient method for capturing photons of light that strike them. Photons may strike the fibres as they first pass through a clear lens in the shroud or may strike the fibres after they are concentrated and focused by an embedded ring or hyperbolic mirror. The wireless optical receiver may be attacked to a mobile vehicle in order to facilitate teleoperation of that vehicle.

Abstract: A system and a method for transporting high luminous intensity light from at least one luminaire to a destination area are disclosed. The system may include a light guide that carries light from the luminaire to a plurality of sensors located on a Printed Circuit Board (PCB). The PCB may be attachable anywhere the luminaire is located. According to an aspect, the luminaire is a separate entity from the sensor system. While collecting light rays originating from the luminaire and delivering them to the light sensors, the light guide may perform a plurality of operations to modify the characteristics of the collected light rays. The plurality of operations performed by the light guide on the light rays may support the accuracy and longevity of the light sensors on the PCB. Further, the light guide allows the sensor subsystem to be proximal to or distant from the luminaire.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a space-based instrument which provides continuous coronal electron temperature and velocity images, for a predetermined period of time, thereby improving the understanding of coronal evolution and how the solar wind and Coronal Mass Ejection transients evolve from the low solar atmosphere through the heliosphere for an entire solar rotation. Specifically, the present invention relates to using a 6U spherical occulter coronagraph CubeSat, and a relative navigational system (RNS) that controls the position of the spacecraft relative to the occulting sphere. The present invention innovatively deploys a free-flying spherical occulter, and after deployment, the actively controlled CubeSat will provide an inertial formation flying with the spherical occulter and Sun.
