BSDF Measurements by Keysight, A Gateway to Harnessing Vantablack Coatings for ADAS/Satellite Application

Register

Modern automotive and satellite systems rely on precise optical performance, where stray light and reflection can compromise reliability. Bidirectional Scattering Distribution Function (BSDF) measurements provide the key to understanding and controlling how surfaces interact with light. Combined with the extraordinary light‑absorbing properties of Vantablack® coatings, these measurements open new pathways to enhance sensor accuracy, reduce glare, and improve mission performance.

This online event, hosted by Keysight in collaboration with SurreyNanoSystem, will demonstrate how BSDF characterization enables engineers to harness Vantablack coatings for ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) and satellite applications. Learn how to evaluate coating performance under real‑world conditions, mitigate optical interference, and apply advanced measurement techniques to accelerate innovation in automotive and aerospace industries.

Gain insight and confidence to design more reliable optical systems that perform flawlessly in challenging environments — from autonomous driving to space exploration.

Who Should Attend:

This virtual event is ideal for R&D, design, systems, test, and compliance engineers working in:

  • Automotive sensing and ADAS development
  • Aerospace and satellite optical systems
  • Optical coating research and characterization
  • Advanced measurement and testing environments

Presenters

  • Quentin Kuperman-Le Bihan
    Application Engineer
    Quentin Kuperman is the Applications Engineering Manager for the Optical Design Engineering group at Keysight. He joined Light Tec in 2010—now part of Keysight’s Optical Design Engineering organization—where he began in technical support for CODE V and LightTools. Over time, he expanded his responsibilities to include optical scattering hardware and measurement activities and later served as Light Tec Technical Manager before moving into his current role.

    Mr. Kuperman specializes in optical scattering and LightTools and also has strong expertise in CODE V. He earned his degree in Optical Engineering in 2009 from the École Supérieure d’Optique (Institut d’Optique Graduate School) in Paris. Prior to joining Light Tec and Optical Research Associates, he worked as an optical engineer at Thales Avionics.
  • James Whitfield
    Applications Scientist, Surrey NanoSystems
    James Whitfield is an Applications Scientist working on Vantablack coatings at Surrey NanoSystems. A member of the Research and Development team, James works on coatings for the space sector, the Vantablack 100 and 300 series. Part of this work is to understand the optical properties of the coating and how coatings affect stray light absorption across all angles of incidence.
