Si-Ware Systems' NeoSpectra™ business was established in 2015 and specializes in the design and manufacturing of Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) powered miniature Fourier Transform InfraRed (FT-IR) spectrometers, or spectral sensors. The first generation NeoSpectra sensors operate in wide spectral ranges in the Near InfraRed (NIR) region, enabling the analysis of various material properties with a single sensor. The sensors are constructed from low cost, robust, permanently aligned, and highly reproducible components. The core technology is based on semiconductor fabrication techniques promising unprecedented economies of scale. NeoSpectra sensors are the smallest and lowest cost spectral sensors enabling ubiquitous spectral sensing for all.
NeoSpectra sensors can be used in a wide variety of industries and markets including:
Si-Ware Systems is a fabless company with design and development headquartered in Cairo, Egypt. There are two subsidiary branches in Paris, France and Los Angeles, California. NeoSpectra sensors are manufactured through a top tier, world-wide supply chain and are available through sales representatives and distributors around the world.
