Supplier of inertial MEMS sensors solutions
We are a European manufacturer of inertial MEMS sensors solutions for precise motion sensing, positioning, navigation and condition monitoring of critical assets. We address demanding applications relying on increasing digitalization of transportation, energy and industrial markets by providing standard and custom digital inertial and vibration sensor solutions.
European MEMS manufacturer
We are located in Crolles, near Grenoble (France), at the entrance of the French Alpes.
We operate a MEMS front-end and back-end manufacturing facility in Crolles, which employs a staff of around 100 people, with a large portion of engineers and scientists. Our factory is EN 9100, ISO14001, ISO45001 and ISO50001 certified.
Pioneer of inertial MEMS on SOI
Founded in 1997, we have pioneered the manufacturing of capacitive MEMS inertial sensors on SOI wafers for high performance applications.
We have augmented the original SOI surface micromachining technology transferred from CEA-Leti by 20 years of development and production of standard and custom capacitive inertial MEMS sensors.
