Apollo Optical Systems was born from the pioneering spirit of Rochester Photonics Corporation, a University of Rochester Institute of Optics spin-off founded in 1989. When market forces led to Corning's closure of their photonics division in 2002, our management team recognized the opportunity to preserve and advance these critical optical technologies. Through a strategic buyout, Apollo emerged as an independent leader in precision optics, maintaining the innovative heritage while expanding capabilities in our state-of-the-art 21,000 square foot Rochester facility. Today, we continue the legacy of bringing cutting-edge optical research into commercial reality, serving global partners who demand the highest levels of performance and reliability.
