For imagining the beam profile of the collimated LED, we would use a diffusive screen and an underwater camera. The unit will be mounted on the 5-axis gantry system for the diffused light source. The dark pool in 0RC039 will be used for this characterization, and if needed time at a local pool could be arranged to make measurements over larger distances.
