We Need MEMS
But we don’t need the painful old approach to manufacturing MEMS, which is inefficient, complex and costly. Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be this way.
We Need a Better Way to Manufacture MEMS
We’ve invented a new topology for MEMS manufacturing, which speeds production cycles, increases performance and reliability, and shrinks costs.
Learn how our patented topology unlocks the full potential of MEMS for some of the industry’s most exciting applications.
Our Technology
Advancing MEMS Applications
Autonomous Navigation & ADAS
Autonomous navigation and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) require precision and faultless operation. That’s true whether they’re used in self-driving cars, aerial drones or autonomous robots on the factory floor.
These applications require LiDAR to see the world accurately in 3D—regardless of environmental conditions. But the key optical subsystem in LiDAR, its mirror, is prone to failure.
Based on our new topology for MEMS, Omnitron’s tiny 3D MEMS sensor fixes LiDAR.
Augmented Reality
Omnitron’s miniature MEMS-based micro projector lets users experience the full potential of a see-through augmented environment.
AI Workflow
Omnitron’s MEMS-based photonics optical cross-connect (OXC) for Tensor architectures delivers improved throughput and reliability in a low-power device, accelerating AI workflow in data centers.
Image Stabilization
Omnitron’s MEMS-based image stabilizer can dramatically improve the resolution and quality of image capture in smartphones and smart vision systems.
Green Tech
Omnitron’s powerful MEMS mirror can meet the most demanding requirements of the laser spectrometry equipment used to detect methane and other toxic gases.
