EARTH & PLANETARY
RADIATIVE TRANSFER
CPI's quest to help scientists, government and commercial customers make the unknown known is at the very heart of an impressive portfolio of radiative transfer tools offered by the company.
GEOMAGNETIC
DISTURBANCE HAZARDS
Electric fields induced during geomagnetic storms cause geomagnetically-induced currents (GICs) in the bulk power system. Transformers exposed to even moderate currents due to GIC experience premature aging...
SATELLITE
REMOTE SENSING
Satellite remote sensing has been a primary focus area for CPI’s scientists since the company’s inception. CPI’s research and development in the field, spanning over its 30 year history, has been distilled into a set of core...

Segmented Tunable Filter
CPI's Segmented Tunable Filter received a prestigious R&D100 Award distinguishing it as one of the 100 most technologically significant products introduced into the marketplace in 2009. This electro-optical filter is an innovation capable of simultaneously collecting spatial and spectral information while providing high spectral resolution and rapid tuning. It dynamically sorts light into multiple discreet narrow spectral bands. Based on Fabry-Perot technology, this next-generation tunable optical filter achieves multiple, independently tunable filter segments on a single substrate. The patented technology is intended for use as the key dispersive element in hybrid multi-spectral imaging systems.
Featured Scientific Solutions & Products
Here at CPI we love science. We study the physical properties of the Earth and its surrounding atmosphere as well as our neighboring planets and our own sun. We make the study of science practical by translating our findings into products, both hardware and software, that make our customer’s lives better and easier. CPI has served various U. S. Government agencies, universities, international science organizations, prime contractors, as well as commercial customers for over 30 years.
