Areas of our business
Two ways we put photonics to work
From fundamental research on high-precision acoustic sensing to fully engineered systems delivered for your asset.
Custom Design & Delivery
Tailoring sensing solutions and delivering complete systems to your specific needs — from case-study analysis and system selection through to a deployable product.
How we deliver
Industrial applications
Built for assets that cannot afford surprises
Wind energy
Onshore and offshore turbine blades
Aerospace
Composite airframes and structures
Civil infrastructure
Bridges, tunnels and structures
Oil & Gas
Pipelines, risers and platforms
Sensor solutions delivered
Three measurements, one optical fiber
Fiber optic sensing lets a single strand carry acoustic, strain and temperature information along its entire length — no batteries, no electronics in the field, no electromagnetic interference.
Acoustic
Distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) at the spatial resolution needed to capture the acoustic events released by early damage in composite materials.
Strain
High-spatial-resolution strain gauges that follow load paths continuously instead of sampling a handful of discrete points.
Temperature
Distributed temperature sensing for thermal profiling and for compensating strain and acoustic measurements.
