Applications

VIGO is a leader in designing and developing photonic systems and components for various industries worldwide. We build tools for many sectors explicitly engineered to meet needs and overcome challenging problems.

Our detectors have found applications in many fields, such as research and development, healthcare, security and defense, industry, transportation, and environmental protection. Not only do we support and develop our solutions in well-known sectors, but we're pioneering new possibilities of use for our systems.

Infrared detectors for space application

Several projects led by space agencies were built to expand our ability to observe many phenomena in space. Those projects are not limited only to the earth’s surface and earth’s atmosphere, which have a direct impact on human beings and the environment.

Transportation

Infrared Detectors for Railway Transport Safety

Safety is the most important aspect of railway transport. Nevertheless every year there are at least few serious accidents in rail traffic.

Industry

Infrared Detectors For Spectroscopy

A variety of spectroscopic techniques is used in gas analysis and sensing – increasingly important fields, crucial in atmosphere monitoring, emission control.

Environment

Environmental Protection

Polish products have already performed well at research centers monitoring the composition of atmosphere, on factory and power plant chimneys, or in unmanned weather balloons.

Transportation

Automotive sensor

The unbeatable speed and sensitivity of VIGO Photonics detectors make them useful in applications where the response time is a matter of safety of hundreds of people.

Industry

Industrial IR Sensor

The detectors are used for monitoring process gases in chemical, refining, power generation, food and aerosol production industries.

Medical

Medical Applications

VIGO Photonics infrared detectors and detection modules at MWIR and LWIR spectral ranges can be used in a wide variety of biological, biotechnological and medical applications including human breath analysis, noninvasive blood tests, dentistry, pharmacy, protein composition analysis.

Industry
