Carsten Schneider visits CiS Forschungsinstitut für Mikrosensorik GmbH
Member of the Bundestag Carsten Schneider (SPD) met with industry representatives and scientists for joint talks at the CiS Research Institute for Microsensors on 20 July 2017
Contactless measurement of blood flow
The micro laser Doppler sensor (MiLD) aims to measure the velocity of light-scattering objects and can be used for in vivo assessment of the flow velocity of blood in the skin. Numerous disease symptoms and healing processes can be monitored
New sensor technologies for tracking blood pressure changes
The CiS Research Institute has been developing miniaturised, silicon-integrated, multispectral photoplethysmography sensors for well over a decade. The tiny sensors are placed in the external auditory canal and are individually adapted to the patient
Point-of-care test system with multi-parameter sensor technology
A multi-channel measuring head for investigations on sample volumes in the nanolitre range has been developed by the CiS Research Institute together with international partners within the framework of the European research project “SMARTER-SI” (GA-Nr. 644596). The principle is based on fluorescence and absorption measurement on an array of different enzyme pixels
Microsystems technologies for medical applications
Developers and manufacturers of sensor technology, medical technology and bioanalytics met for the 1st workshop in Erfurt on 10 May 2017 to present innovative solutions from microsystems technology in prevention, diagnosis, analytics and therapy and to network interdisciplinarily
Bolt 4.0 presented at Hannovermesse
For the first time, CiS presented a new sensor for testing special bolt in safety-relevant applications at the joint stand of LEG Thüringen at the Hannover Messe 2017. Described as “Bolt 4.0”, the model impressed the trade visitors
Barometric MEMS pressure sensor for bio- and medical technology
At Sensor+Test 2017, the CiS Research Institute for Microsensors presents highly stable, media-resistant barometric pressure sensors in MEMS technology
Mounting UV LEDs flexibly and efficiently – Fully automatic micro-assembly centre with diversity
A new micro-assembly centre expands the technological basis for the development of technological solutions for the fully automated assembly of application-specific UV LED modules in different series sizes and designs, whether as single LED sources or area lamps.
The modular system concept enables the most important AVT assembly steps to be carried out in one unit
Synthetic diamond coatings in microsystems technology
Synthetic diamond coatings can be manufactured on an industrial scale to be CMOS-compatible. The manufacturing and processing costs are comparable to those of other technologies, such as passivation or contacting. In order to implement diamond coatings as passive as well as active functional layers in sensors and to evaluate their industrial applicability, the CiS Research Institute is dedicated to pressure measurement in aggressive working environments and intelligent thermal management in current R&D projects
Miniaturised UV LED illumination with multiple wavelengths
The CiS Research Institute has expanded its opto-electronic competencies to develop multispectral UV light sources for fluorescence and absorbance measurements. Manufacturers of measuring instruments for bioanalytics and medical technology can thus build significantly smaller systems and open up new fields of application. In addition, users of this technology also benefit from low system costs
