AR Coated Optical Glass Dome | Custom Anti-Reflection Optics for LiDAR & Surveillance






Custom AR‑Coated Optical Glass Dome
Hong Kong Felix Optical Glass Co., Limited · Model FG‑ARCD‑SPW040
Hong Kong Felix Optical Glass Co., Limited supplies high‑precision hemispherical AR‑coated optical glass domes tailored for LiDAR sensing, autonomous driving, UAV and outdoor PTZ surveillance camera systems. Integrated multi‑layer anti‑reflection vacuum coating paired with precision hemispherical geometry minimizes surface reflection and stray‑light interference, delivering high transmittance, low optical distortion and stable imaging performance under strong sunlight, fog, rain and long‑term outdoor harsh‑environment operation.
This product belongs to Custom Optical Domes & Hemispheres, optimized for automotive LiDAR and outdoor surveillance optical engineer search intent.
All listed parameters are typical reference values. Final dimension, material, AR coating spectrum and tolerances shall be confirmed by official engineering drawings and project specifications.
2. Core Advantages of AR‑Coated Optical Domes
Our AR coated dome series solves critical optical pain‑points for vehicle‑borne, drone and outdoor monitoring equipment, boosting signal‑to‑noise ratio and long‑term environmental reliability.
- Multi‑layer AR vacuum coating: Greatly improves overall light transmittance, suppresses surface reflection and stray‑light noise for LiDAR laser signal fidelity.
- Ultra‑low hemispherical distortion: Ultra‑precision CNC hemispherical polishing achieves uniform 360‑degree optical coverage with minimal imaging deformation.
- Full outdoor weather resistance: UV‑stable, scratch‑resistant and anti‑fog coating layer, adapted for continuous exposure to sun, rain, humidity and wide temperature swings.
- Full drawing‑driven customization: Custom material, dimension, wall thickness, curvature and AR wavelength spectrum for OEM / ODM LiDAR and surveillance projects.
- 100% full inspection before shipment: Each unit undergoes transmittance, distortion and dimensional metrology testing to guarantee consistent finished‑part quality.
- Precision sealing edge finishing: High‑quality polished sealing edge for reliable mechanical assembly and environmental sealing with camera / LiDAR housings.

8. AR‑Coated Optical Dome Frequently Asked Questions
Below are typical performance descriptions. Real indicators must match project drawings and customer incoming‑inspection specifications.
Q: What are benefits of AR‑coated dome vs ordinary uncoated glass dome?
A: Multi‑layer AR coating lowers surface reflection and glare, raises light transmittance, improves imaging clarity and delivers higher LiDAR laser‑signal transmission accuracy.
Q: Can this AR coating sustain long‑term outdoor deployment?
A: Our AR thin‑film features high layer adhesion, good UV‑resistance, thermal stability, scratch‑resistance and anti‑fog properties, suitable for long‑term harsh outdoor environment operation.
Q: What customizations can you provide for AR domes?
A: We customize dome outer diameter, curvature, wall thickness, substrate material, AR‑coating wavelength spectrum and edge finishing to satisfy LiDAR and surveillance equipment design needs.
Q: Do you support prototype sample and large‑volume mass supply?
A: We support single‑piece R&D prototype samples, small‑batch trial‑runs and high‑volume mass‑production orders. Every dome receives full inspection before shipment.
