01 OUR VISION
We’re rewriting the script on building high-performance and low-cost sensors for the world of tomorrow
02 OUR MISSION
We pursue moonshots that break through the barriers of MEMS manufacturing—because nothing’s more important than spurring development of technologies that improve our quality of life
Our storied team of industry pioneers is reinventing how MEMS devices are manufactured.
Best-in-Class Team

Think you know MEMS manufacturing?
THINK AGAIN
The way you’ve built MEMS devices all these years is outdated—and it’s time for something better. A revolutionary topology for MEMS free us from the limits of traditional MEMS manufacturing, which have gated our achievements…until now.
Our MEMS topology dramatically improves the capabilities, robustness and reliability of the MEMS optical subsystem in LiDAR applications. It shrinks the formfactor, slashes the cost, and reduces the data, giving you a whole new understanding of your environment in a small, rugged, affordable device that optimizes your LiDAR—and delights your customers.
Seeking Maverick Thinkers
Are you a capable technophile allergic to the status quo? We have openings for engineers, business developers, and others who want to join our team and shake up the industry.

Innovation in MEMS—and Elsewhere—Starts with Market Disruption
When Thomas A. Edison invented the phonograph in 1877, he first envisioned its use for letter writing and other forms of dictation, but he didn’t foresee that his invention would one day transform the way that people listen to music, expanding that experience from live performance only to recorded music in the comfort of one’s own…
Why Isn’t LiDAR in Every Autonomous Navigation System?
Only LiDAR provides depth and functions seamlessly at all levels of light. It also delivers phenomenal resolution, so it can perceive both moving and stationary objects—another critical advantage over cameras and radar.
