Directed Energy Weapons

BUILT FOR WHAT'S NEXT.

Critical Performance for the Energy Battlefield.

Directed energy weapon systems operate at the limits of speed, precision, and environmental stress. Maintaining beam accuracy under shock, vibration, and dynamic motion requires sensing technology purpose-built for these conditions.

BEI Precision's ruggedized encoders bring space-qualified performance to ground-based directed energy weapon platforms, delivering high-speed, high-accuracy feedback that remains stable where conventional technologies degrade. The AIME-II Nano Series exemplifies this capability, providing compact, high-resolution feedback optimized for precision beam control in constrained, high-performance architectures.

A mechanically robust, precise design— featuring reinforced glass and a hardened readhead—maintains alignment and signal integrity under extreme conditions. Validated through MIL-standard testing and proven in harsh and space-based environments, these encoders deliver consistent, low-latency feedback for stable beam steering and reliable system performance.

Precision That Performs Under Pressure.

BEI Precision delivers encoder solutions engineered for precision beam control in directed energy systems, providing the speed, accuracy, and stability required for mission-critical performance. In high-speed, dynamic environments, legacy sensing technologies introduce latency, reduce positional accuracy, and limit overall system responsiveness. 

BEI's solution, the AIME-II Nano Series, is designed to overcome these constraints, delivering high-fidelity, real-time position feedback that enables precise, stable beam control in the most demanding operating conditions.
