Able to precisely measure temperature, hyper-accurate digital temperature sensors from ams OSRAM have raised the bar on monitoring body temperature.

While SARS-CoV-2 antigen testing remains vital, those who have recovered or been vaccinated may now want to know their antibody level. ams OSRAM’s spectral sensor can now guide answers.

Equipment for testing the ripeness of fruit today is expensive or creates waste. New technology developed by ams OSRAM promises a high-performance, portable alternative at an affordable price.

The More Than Silicon approach opens the door to higher performance and improved analog functionality while reducing development time and risk

2D and 3D embedded optical solutions have become system critical. A perfect fit for NIR illuminated systems, the Mira family enables engineers to design new power-efficient solutions, even in space-constrained designs.

Good things are said to come in small packages. Enabling developers to integrate a solution in the tiniest space can be the greatest challenge of all. The ultra-compact NanEye camera module can now go where no camera module has gone before.

Rapidly growing e-commerce and increased focus on safety in the workplace are driving massive growth in the Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) and Automatic Guided Vehicle (AGV) markets. They are now getting an expanded field of view.

The car as a simple means of transportation is becoming a thing of the past. Instead, the car of tomorrow will be a mobile extension of our living space, with Infrared light applications taking center stage.

For industrial applications using robots and automatic guided vehicles, the interaction between infrared light and corresponding sensors is essential. To capture the world in 3D system manufacturers can chose between different approaches.

Combination of multi-spectral sensor and white LED emitter recognizes the unique spectral signatures of different types of smoke:

The ams AS5600 position sensor saves our customers space and weight in household appliances and toys. It replaces failure-prone mechanical switches thus increasing the reliability of the whole product.

Two technology powerhouse companies with over 110 years of history need a powerful visual corporate identity. Our journey started with the company vision and customer feedback.

The ams CMV20000 and CMV4000 CMOS image sensors are part of NASA’s Mars 2020 Perseverance rover and meet and perform in the demanding conditions on Mars making them also perfect for the most demanding industrial applications on Earth.
