Sensing
Imaging, ranging, MEMS, quantum sensing. How machines measure the world.
Imaging
CMOS image sensors, event-based vision, hyperspectral, InGaAs SWIR, microbolometer thermal IR. Cameras as the dominant input modality — and what comes after the conventional sensor.
Ranging & detection
LiDAR, mmWave radar, SPAD arrays, time-of-flight. Measuring distance and motion — the sensing layer under autonomy, robotics, and consumer AR.
MEMS
Micro-electromechanical systems — sensing, switching, actuation, spectral analysis. Small mechanical things integrated into silicon.
Quantum sensing
Quantum gravimetry, magnetometry, NV diamond sensing, atomic clocks, quantum imaging. The most mature commercial application of quantum technology — already shipping for navigation, geophysics, and defence.
