Overview
PixQuanta’s mission is to provide the auto, space and consumer industry with the safest possible LiDAR solution in while having the greatest accuracy, longest range, highest reliability and smallest form factor…and all at the lowest cost. To achieve this PixQuanta’s proprietary high gain thin film diode technology transforms a CMOS Image Sensor (2D) into a CMOS ranging sensor (3D) to create a high performance/low cost LiDAR solution.

PixQuanta Packaged Photosensor device with custom readout evaluation board.
Expertise
Silicon CMOS sensor design for visible, NIR, SWIR wavelengths covering the range 400nm-1600nm. Rapid prototype and testing of photodiode array on carrier chip which easily interfaces to linear and 2D Readout IC arrays. Design of photodiode thin film on ROIC wafer for fully integrated solution.
Service Domains
- Satellite Technology
- Satellite Applications
Main Space related products, services and projects
- High reliability LiDAR sensors with no moving parts for space applications such as Formation Flying, Asteroid landing, In-flight coupling, Altimetry, Proximitry Sensing, and Space Debris identification.
- For ESA, PixQuanta is currently active in a key European Space Agency GSTP/TDE project to develop the thin film technology for LiDAR applications (currently TRL3).
