Sensors
We are happy to assist you in the development of sensor systems, from feasibility studies and prototype development to qualification and product development.
We develop sophisticated electronics for the excitation and evaluation of sensors and actuators, either discrete for smaller quantities or integrated for large volumes. We have extensive experience with optical, capacitive, inductive, resistive, and ultrasonic-based sensor systems for applications in medical and industrial measurement technology.
