NOBIS is a completely new concept in sensor technology. The integrated programming platform allows customer-specific solutions to be implemented as quickly as possible. The freely programmable sensor software enables a wide range of applications
At the IVAM product market “High-tech for Medical Devices” the CiS Research Institute shows new results from research and development in the field of medical microsystems technology
Students at the Bauhaus University in Weimar were looking at alternative ways of marketing the results of high-tech research. The collaboration between the university and the CiS Research Institute for Microsensors and Photovoltaics came about as part of an interdisciplinary “prototype seminar” held by the Chair of Media Management. The aim of the seminar was to find new, generally comprehensible and attractive ways of accessing the application possibilities of high-tech solutions in need of explanation
The decreasing accommodation ability of the eye with increasing age (presbyopia) can be compensated by visual aids. In case of additional lens opacity (cataract), the removal of the lens and the implantation of an intraocular lens (IOL) are necessary. The new approach to solve this problem pursued in the BMBF-funded project “Akkosys” is a smart microsystem that is implanted in the capsular bag of the eye instead of an intraocular lens
CiS Research Institute leads the development of a micro-fluorescence sensor. In a multi-channel sensor the optical excitation with different light wavelengths and the measurement of transmission and fluorescence signals take place
Technologies from microsystems engineering and microoptics form the basis for the successful miniaturization of a new, interferometric distance measurement system from TETRA GmbH in Ilmenau. The core component, consisting of a Michelsen laser interferometer and an optical silicon detector, was developed by the mechatronics specialist together with the Microoptical Systems Application Center at CiS Research Institute
The 3D structuring of silicon is becoming increasingly important for optical and opto-electronic applications in microsystems technology. For the reliable and low-loss coupling of optical fibers to photodiodes, the CiS Research Institute developed new microstructuring technologies for the fabrication of cavities with flank angles of 45° and 90° and high optical absorption of the sensitive coupling surface
For the use of sensor systems under extreme conditions, such as in EMC-critical or Ex-protected areas, a galvanic connection of the sensors for energy supply or signal transmission is often not possible. Together with industrial partners, the application center microoptical systems of the CiS research institute developed a solution compatible with existing fieldbus systems
Based on special chip and assembly technologies from the CiS Research Institute, the ILK Institut für Luft- und Kältetechnik gGmbH, Dresden has developed a cost-effective multi-parameter system for continuous monitoring of humidity, bubble formation, temperature and level in refrigerant systems
