For an automotive-windshield optical program, sample angle and curvature are not minor installation details. They shape the measurement plan itself. OWADMS-01 automatically measures optical angular deviation, binocular deviation, and optical wedge angle. The system measures optical wedge angle in the HUD area of automotive windshield glass. The system performs line-scan measurements across multiple designated sample areas and points in one run. A useful technical review therefore begins with the windshield drawing, HUD area, designated points, and proposed installation-angle plan.
OWADMS-01 is not a generic result generator for every windshield. The buyer and technical team need to define the sample geometry, support approach, measurement areas, environmental preparation, and the decision that will use the results.
What OWADMS-01 brings to a windshield review
| Confirmed item | Buyer planning use |
|---|---|
| Optical angular, binocular, and wedge-angle measurement | Identifies the intended optical questions. |
| HUD-area windshield application | Keeps the use case tied to a defined vehicle-glass area. |
| Line scans across designated areas and points | Lets the buyer map the test plan to the drawing. |
| 70 arcmin / 4200 arcsec range | The measurement range is 70 arcmin or 4200 arcsec. This provides a measurement-range item for project review. |
| Defined temperature and humidity conditions | Makes environmental preparation part of the checklist. |
Configuration reference
The confirmed product is the OWADMS-01 Optical Wedge Angular Deviation Measurement System. Its public product information was reviewed in September 2026 for the stated windshield optical-measurement role. The system consists of a laser light-source sensor system, an electronically controlled sample support, an industrial PC, and software. Final configuration depends on the buyer’s windshield geometry, designated areas, installation-angle range, scan path, and facility conditions.
Buyer decision: start with the intended viewing and measurement areas
The most productive first step is to mark the HUD area and every proposed measurement area on the windshield drawing. Then define which optical variable is being reviewed at each point and how the result will be used by the buyer’s quality or engineering process. This creates a test-plan discussion rather than a vague request for an optical system.
Because OWADMS-01 performs line scans across multiple designated sample areas and points in one run, the list of areas and points should be deliberate. The buyer should not assume that a scan path for one windshield geometry transfers unchanged to another program.
Application/support: treat curvature and support as one discussion
Curvature affects how a windshield is presented to the system and how designated areas are reached. Provide the CAD drawing, overall dimensions, curvature information, handling limits, intended sample orientation, and accessible regions. These inputs guide discussion of the electronically controlled sample support and any required fixture or movement approach.
For non-standard sample dimensions, loading, fixture, scan path, or system-integration needs, Jeffoptics can evaluate a tailored hardware, software, fixture, reporting, or system-integration route. The tailored route starts with the actual part and plan, not an assumption about a standard windshield.
Application/support: include the environment in the RFQ
The working-temperature range is 15 to 35 degrees Celsius, with relative humidity below 85%. Put the proposed operating location and environmental controls in the project brief early. The product information also specifies a 220 VAC power supply and a 532 nm laser below 1 mW; those items belong in the technical review rather than in a late installation surprise.
This is a planning advantage: engineering, quality, and procurement can review the same physical constraints before they commit to a configuration or installation route.
What to send for an OWADMS-01 technical review
Send the windshield drawing and dimensions, curvature information, HUD and other measurement areas, designated points, proposed installation-angle range, handling/support constraints, scan-path objective, operating environment, record and reporting needs, quantities, destination, budget range, and project schedule. That package lets the technical discussion follow the buyer’s real measurement plan.
FAQ
Can OWADMS-01 be selected without a windshield drawing?
A drawing is strongly useful because sample geometry, HUD areas, designated points, and support requirements shape the technical review.
Does one scan path fit every windshield?
No. The buyer should define designated areas and points for the actual windshield and program.
Can a non-standard fixture or integration be discussed?
Yes. Jeffoptics can evaluate a tailored hardware, software, fixture, reporting, or system-integration requirement after reviewing the part and measurement plan.
