Sensors Unlimited
A Collins Aerospace Co.

We design, manufacture and service systems and components and provide integrated solutions for commercial, regional, business and military aircraft, helicopters and other platforms. We are also a major supplier to international space programs.

Originally founded in 1991 as an advanced research and development company, Sensors Unlimited quickly grew to become a major supplier of InGaAs technology, products, and shortwave IR imaging solutions.

Now as Sensors Unlimited, a Collins Aerospace company, the team operates in an ISO 9001:2015 certified fabrication facility occupying over 97,000 square feet and that includes a III-V foundry with Class 100 clean rooms and state-of-the art processes such as our MOCVD epitaxial growth and detector formation. Products built on our proprietary InGaAs platform are SWIR cameras, 1- and 2- dimensional focal plane arrays (FPAs), extended wavelength response InGaAs image sensors, has the resources to custom design structures and devices for a variety of customer requirements. Current deployments include laser tracking for weapons and communication systems, covert and fixed-site surveillance, ground and air unmanned vehicle (UV) payloads, gimbal sensor assemblies, night vision and free space communications. Other applications for InGaAs technologies and imaging systems include near-infrared spectroscopy, security and surveillance, line-scan inspection, process control, laser beam profiling, microscopy, art inspection, and astronomy.

The SUI management team has a combined total of over 75 years’ experience in the infrared detector industry, making us ready for any shortwave or near infrared imaging challenge. In addition, our highly experienced engineering staff, forty-four percent of whom hold an advanced degree, strives continually to advance our technology to the next level. In addition to its outstanding development and fabrication team, SUI relies upon its intellectual property portfolio, which consists of over 15 patents in InGaAs technology.
