Patent number: 11652129Abstract: The present disclosure provides an optoelectronic module. In one aspect, the optoelectronic module includes an insertion member including a housing insert and an imager disposed in the housing insert, and a receiving member including an interposer, a housing disposed on the interposer, and an optoelectronic device electrically connected to said interposer. The housing of the receiving member is configured to engage and receive the housing insert of the insertion member. The optoelectronic device of the receiving member is configured to align with the imager of the insertion member.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2021Date of Patent: May 16, 2023Assignee: Wavefront Research, Inc.Inventors: David M. Vincentsen, Jonas D. Corl, Thomas A. Mitchell, Michelle M. Stone, Thomas W. Stone, Randall C. Veitch
