White-Light Interferometry (WLPI)
Opsens' founders are known to have pioneered the use of white-light interferometry for fiber optic sensing and to have brought this type of sensing technology to the measurement industry marketplace. They now offer the latest advance in that domain with their new fiber optic sensing technology: the White-Light Polarization Interferometry technology (Patent #7,259,862). Found at the heart of Opsens' WLPI series of signal conditioners, the WLPI technology provides absolute measurements of the path length difference of any kind of interferometric fiber optic sensors with an accuracy and reliability never reached before.

Band Gap (SCBG / GaAs)
The SemiConductor Band Gap technology is a spectrophotometric fiber optic temperature sensing technology that has been used in the power transformer industry for many years now. Based on the temperature dependence of the bandgap of GaAs crystal, this technology is used by Opsens in its SCGB series of fiber optic temperature sensors.
Opsens is proud to offer an updated version, which is fully compatible with the existing sensors installed in the field but with unique features and performances.
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS)
Opsens possesses the equipment, facilities and expertise for the production of optical MEMS sensing devices compatible with its WLPI product line. Opsens actual offer includes a complete family of fiber optic Fabry-Perot pressure sensors covering a wide range of applications such as for medical catheters, industrial high temperature pressure measurements, and for other miniature in-situ pressure measurements. Opsens is devoted to develop new MEMS-based fiber optic sensors for customer specific applications.
