Expertise

Being a leading edge research institute in the field of nano and micro technology involves combining some very special qualities. New demands and fast moving technological development present continual challenges.

We have been able to exceed the demands these challenges create by gathering a group of dedicated people – Imego people. Their in-depth knowledge and innovative excellence is applied to conducting advanced research, allowing us to deliver the latest solutions and expertise Swedish industry and SME’s are using as the foundation for tomorrow’s generation of products.

We pave the path between world-class research and industrialization

MEMS

The vision of MEMS based sensor systems lies in their ability to sense, think, act and communicate through the integration of electronics and sensors. Technological excellence in this area results in smaller components making systems faster, cheaper, more reliable and capable of incorporating more complex functions.

Bio & Chemical Sensors

In this field, we develop sensor systems for applications in medical diagnostics, health care, biotechnological process industry as well as for food quality monitoring and environmental surveillance. Some projects are conducted together with industrial partners while others, the more research oriented projects, have been initiated in-house. The latter allow Imego to keep the competitive edge within these areas on a high international level and have paved the way for development of a substantial patent portfolio.

Electromagnetic Sensors

The Electromagnetic Sensor unit is working with sensor systems that are related to different magnetic detection techniques. We develop sensor systems together with both large and small companies. We also help customers related to magnetic analysis and magnetic characterization. With magnetic sensor systems we can detect for instance positions and motions of different objects, moisture and viscosity and different crystallization processes.

Photonics

Qualified expertise in this field allows us to offer comprehensive knowledge of optical measurement systems and experience of optical detectors and filters.

Electronics

Comprehensive experience in this area means we can offer knowledge within the systemisation, design and verification of discrete and integrated analogous and digital electronics including low level VHDL programming and other near hardware programming.

Signal Processing

The task of the Imego signal processing group is to extract useful information from sensor signals and to control the sensors so that they operate optimally. Our experience is key for achieving state-of-the art sensor performance.  

Industrial Design

Good design serves to protect the relationships between the producer and the user, which can make the deal good business – for both parties. This is where the Industrial Design department at Imego can be of help. With Imego as a development partner, your firm has access to expertise in industrial design with the relevant theoretical background and many years’ practical experience in product development.  

Packaging

In today’s electronics industry, the major trend involves making products smarter, lighter, smaller and faster without compromising power, functionality and price. Our expertise within electronics packaging can represent the difference between successful or failed production.

Simulation

Our expertise lies in creating analytical and FE based models of micro sensors to be simulated together with system electronics and signal processing to resolve design issues and costly hardware tests at an early stage of system development.

Production & Industrialization

Successfully adapting your devices to production can substantially reduce costs and time-to-market. At Imego we have extensive experience in production methods for sensors and integrated electronics. Using our expertise we can help you fine-tune elements of your production process and suggest appropriate third-party manufacturing facilities.
