Company registered at Companies House
The company was set up to exploit the patent EP3510435A1 and paper Hobbs M, Grainger MP, Zhu C, Tan CH & Willmott J (2018) Quantitative thermal imaging using single-pixel Si APD and MEMS mirror. Optics Express, 26(3), 3188-3198. It has started with £230K of university IP exploitation funding and £200K of private investor funding. It will sell accurate temperature mapping instruments. Initially, this will be through Ametek Land as distributor to the petrochemical industry. Its aim is to reduce energy consumption in high temperature foundational industries like petrochemical, glass and steel.
The company was founded late last year and there has not yet been time for it to make significant impacts.
1 Jan 2026 to 31 Mar 2026
Measurement of Low Emissivity Coated Glass Temperature within the furnace/manufacturing process utilising emisisivity enhancement and emisisivity independence techniques.
1 Aug 2025 to 30 Apr 2026
This project will involve field testing our portable hyperspectral smartphone imaging solution (ChromaMapper) for plant health monitoring and disease detection. This solution offers hyperspectral imaging to a high accuracy at a cost point and portability suitable for wide scale adoption in the agricultural and biosecurity sectors.
1 Feb 2025 to 30 Apr 2025
Novel distance measurement solution for optical glass at elevated temperatures.
1 Jun 2024 to 30 Nov 2025
This industrial research project aims to deliver a working prototype, high accuracy thermal perfusion mapping instrument, for measuring blood perfusion levels in patient's feet. The aim is to provide a more accurate reliable technique to replace ankle-brachial pressure index (ABPI) method for PAD screening and improve outcomes and reduce re-admissions for...

1 Aug 2023 to 31 Oct 2023
Domestic combustion particulate emission and carbon dioxide capture utilising bio-activated exhaust gas suppression techniques.
1 Feb 2022 to 31 Oct 2022
This industrial research project aims to determine the optimum measurement technique and technology for non-contact measurement of highly accurate temperature, key elemental liquid iron chemistry (including silicon and sulfur content) and key elemental molten glass chemistry (including iron oxide and magnesium oxide).
1 Oct 2020 to 30 Sep 2021
This project aims to provide accurate in situ real time raceway adiabatic flame temperatures, coal addition rates from the lance at the tuyère and raceway depth measurements to allow blast furnace operators the ability to optimise their coal injection rates and oxygen enrichment levels at low utilisation levels to reduce coke usage.
