Funding Project THEIA
Advanced CMOS Technology For Highly Sensitive Thermopile IR Arrays
"THEIA" is a funding project supported by the European Regional Development Fund (EFRE). In this project, we work on developing advanced technologies for next-generation higher resolution thermopile infrared arrays. Our project partners are X-FAB Dresden GmbH and Fraunhofer IPMS.
Our target for these future arrays includes:
- Higher NETD for better temperature resolution
- Smaller pixel size and higher pixel density
- Better competitiveness for our key markets like thermal imaging, building automation, smart home and gesture detection
The main project goal is to build a first 120x84 prototype which combines all the above-mentioned goals and shows the innovation power of Heimann, X-FAB and Fraunhofer IPMS and is made possible by the support of this funding of the European Union.
The project carrier is "Sächsische Aufbaubank Dresden", application number 100344821.

We are pleased to introduce already two other HowTo videos. These step-by-step clips regarding our USB Application Set and the WiFi Application Shield help our customers to easily get started. Have a look at the videos below.
Our Heimann Sensor team is pleased to share a great success story: One of our innovative sensors has been included into a new thermal imaging camera that is now available at LIDL throughout Germany and internationally. In this way, this kind of product has become affordable to the masses. After a couple days, the cameras were already sold out in the supermarkets. Nevertheless, the camera is still available on the LIDL online shop at https://www.lidl.de/p/parkside-4-v-waermebildkamera-pwbka-4-a1-1024-messpunkte/p100377390 . The heart of this camera is the Heimann Sensor HTPA32x32d array sensor, which enables spatially resolved temperature measurements for professional use as well as everyday use. For example, it is possible to detect heat loss in buildings or to analyze electrical systems. This success is a further proof of the high quality and competitiveness of Heimann Sensor products.
We are pleased to introduce our new webinar series. Starting with a step-by-step guide of our UDP (Ethernet) application set, you will learn how easy it is to get a thermal video recording with our HTPA arrays. Watch out for future webinar clips!
Heimann Sensor is looking forward to participating in the 25th China International Optoelectronic Exhibition, which takes place 11-13 September 2024 in Shenzhen Bao'an International and Exhibition Center. Meet us at booth no. 8E06 - in cooperation with our sales partner Shenzhen Longxiang Technology Co, Ltd.
The modern world is full of sensors used in a wide range of application: from industrial automation to medical technology. With an impressive history and a focus on innovation, Heimann Sensor has become a trustworthy partner for companies and research institutions worldwide. Founded 22 years ago, with the first employees already having many years of experience in infrared sensor technology, a basis was established that served to continually develop new products and set technological world records in the years to follow. Thus, Heimann Sensor is a pioneer in sensor technology in accordance to its motto “We love INfraNOVATIONS”.
Like the year before, again this year some of our colleagues and even their offspring attended the 5km run in Dresden in June. Some came as fans and the eight you can see on the picture crossed the finish line together. Congratulations! It's a wonderful team event and we're already looking forward to next year's repetition.
The Sensor+Test 2024 fair was once again a meeting place for the European sensor community. We had many interesting discussions with suppliers and old and potentially new customers, particpated in a lot of meetings - all in a short time and in one place. Thanks to a wonderful team from Heimann Sensor (from left to right: Dr. Wilhelm Leneke, Mischa Schulze, Dr. Jörg Schieferdecker, Dr. Victor Bechthold, Dr. Marion Simon, Michael Schnorr, Christoph Kohlmann, Alexander Rehmer, guest) our participation at the Sensor+Test 2024 was a success.
Meet us in Hall 1 Booth 436
Visit us at the Boston Electronics Booth 612 from 21 April– 25 April 2024
Heimann Sensor's non-contact sensors for remote temperature measurements are used for the monitoring of tires of racing motorcycles and racing cars. We thank our customer and partner Nigtecnologias, located in Argentina, for this great cooperation. ( https://www.instagram.com/nigtecnologiasoficial/ ) The information about the actual temperature is important to control grip and degradation of the race tires. Our integrated sensor features a fast response with high accuracy. If you are interested in further information, have a look at our Thermopile Modules (HIM Series) .
