Optical engineering is likewise important to fiber-optic technology, which sends information through cables using impulses of mild instead of power.

Optical Engineering Optical engineering is the engineering discipline that focuses on the design of equipment and devices that function by using light. It is based on the science of optics, a field of physics that studies the properties and behaviors of visible light and its two nearest neighbors on the electromagnetic spectrum, infrared and ultraviolet.
Applications of Optical Engineering • Some practical applications of optics can be done using a model of electromagnetic radiation based on classical physics. • This is because the predictions of modern quantum mechanics diverge noticeably from classical mechanics only at the atomic or subatomic scale or under extremely unusual conditions such as near-absolute zero temperatures.
Distinguish between Optical & Laser Technology Optical Technology Laser Technology A laser is a device that emits light through a process of optical amplification based on the stimulated emission of electromagnetic radiation. The term "laser" originated as an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. • Optical engineering is the field of study that focuses on applications of optics. • Optical engineers design components of optical instruments such as lenses, microscopes, telescopes, and other equipment that utilizes the properties of light.
