Radiant Vision Systems, LLC

Rick Albrecht is an optical engineer who joined Radiant in 1995.

I joined Radiant Imaging in the summer of 1995.

In December of that year, Ron Rykowski [Founder and then-CEO] and I had a long phone call discussing how the process of creating a source model could be automated and how to address some of the shortcomings of the current manual process.

Over the next two months I designed the first source imaging goniometer, which was fabricated in a shop in North Carolina, and shipped to Radiant Imaging [then headquartered in Dana Point, CA] by the second week in April 1996.
