The assemblies are a direct replacement for older style incandescent bulbs, fitting into the roundel ring as a replacement for the existing roundel, reflector and bracket.
Murphy's primary method will be something called "laser ranging."Light from a laser fired from the Earth could hit a reflector on the surface of the moonbounce back.
A new dynamic model is developed for simulating the widely tunable grating assisted codirectional coupler with rear sampled grating reflector (GCSR) lasers.
Along with an intricate series of custom lenses and geometrically-optimized reflectors, this system literally shapes and controls the light, achieving industry-leading brightness while dramatically reducing blooming.
Here in the news studio, there aren't too many occupational hazards besides the light reflector I sometimes bump my head on or the bloopers I say but you never see because we edit those out.
