Coaxial lights illuminate with a light source that appears to be inside the camera, allowing the illumination of shiny or specular surfaces uniformly without seeing the light source’s own reflection. This is done by transmitting light onto a half way mirrors which will then reflect light onto the target. The resulting image is more accurate and reliable with higher contrast and more uniformity. This illumination provides greater definition in the edge points allowing for a vision system to accurately evaluate shiny mirror-like surfaces. 

With a variety of options from Falcon Illumination, there is sure to be one appropriate for your application.
