Our guest speaker will be Paul Bourget, Chief Visionary Officer & Senior Optical Engineer of LumenFlow. LumenFlow is a small consulting and manufacturing company in Middleville, right off M37. As quoted from their website:

LumenFlow offers superior solutions to your photonics challenges. Whether you are looking for engineering assistance or a completely designed and manufactured solution or anything in between, LumenFlow can fulfill your needs.

[]LumenFlow's lean-design approach starts with superior lense design. By putting more light where it is needed in the best form for detection, the requirements on the rest of the photonics assembly are reduced. Bolstered by mechanical designs that ease assembly and are more robust and reliable in use, manufacturing and field adjustment needs are simpler and easier. Coupled with electronic designs that produce better signal to noise ratios with minimum components, LumenFlow's lean designs outperform the competition, cost less, are easier to manufacture, are more reliable, and require less maintenance and adjustment.

Come join us for a great time with friends and as always some quality networking.
