From Garage to Cutting-Edge Imaging Lab
Back in January, we shared the story of our collaboration with Yanding and the founding of Fourier Image Lab — born in the garage of Timofey Uvarov. If you missed it, you can read the full background here:
As of March 2025, we're proud to announce that Fourier Image Lab has officially moved out of Timofey Uvarov’s garage — where the company first took shape — and into a dedicated facility in Campbell, California, just minutes from the headquarters of Apple and NVIDIA. What began as a focused engineering effort on a workbench has now grown into a fully equipped research and development lab.

The new lab is fully equipped for research, calibration, and production-level testing. For example, in our pursuit of high-quality infrared reflectance charts for camera and LiDAR testing, we’ve developed our own custom targets. These cover both the visible and near-infrared spectral ranges, enabling accurate, reproducible testing for LiDAR systems, TOF cameras, and thermal/IR imagers.
One of the cornerstone tools in our lab is the robotic collimator — a machine unique in the United States. It enables precise verification of active alignment, analysis of camera focus, depth of field across all fields of view, and the generation of dense 3D point cloud data representing lens point spread functions. These digital models can be used to simulate any combination of lens and sensor for virtual cameras — a key capability for synthetic data systems and sensor fusion.
The lab also houses a precision spectrometers and a programmable multispectral light booth, capable of modeling any light spectrum up to 1050nm. Using the spectrometer, we can capture the spectrum of natural sunlight above our Campbell location at a specific date and time, and then recreate that exact spectrum within the booth.
This facility reflects our belief that camera design, perception modeling, and physical testing should exist in one continuous loop — from photons to neural nets, all under one roof.
