Mirrorcle Technologies, Inc (MTI) the California-based manufacturer of patented, gimbal

-less micromirrors, today announced the commercial availability of tip/tilt/piston devices

fully supported by a plug-and-play development kit. The company’s MEMS-based beam

-steering micro mirrors now feature ‘third dimension’agility

– in addition to tipping and tilting the the X and Y axes, these devices are now available with a third, pistoning movement

. While these gimbal-less devices have increasingly been deployed around the globe, not many users have

taken advantage of their third dimension pistoning capability. “This is exciting news,” said Dr.

Milanovic, Founder and CEO of Mirrorcle Technologies. “While we have been marketing our

devices as the world’s fastest and lowest power-consuming quasi-static (Point-to-Point) dual

-axis optical beam steering solutions, some of our customers requested if we could also offer

specialized hardware and software to also offer access to their intrinsic capability to move up

and down in the Z direction. You can truly say that this was a customer

-inspired achievement, and we are excited to announce the availability of

standard products that allow for either X/Y beam -steering or pistoning (up and down)

movement – and of course any combinations of the

three degrees of freedom at the same time!”
