An optical shutter is a high-speed device used to control the transmission of low-power imaging light in optical systems. By selectively blocking or allowing light to pass through, they play a critical role in applications requiring precise timing and control of light exposure. Optical shutters provide continuous high-speed modulation and low-power safety in fields ranging from spectroscopy and microscopy to camera and imaging systems.
