The Heimann Sensor team wishes you a joyous holiday season and a happy New Year!

Things are very exciting at our Eltville company site right now: we are getting a heat pump that uses geothermal energy. Several ground drillings and the corresponding pipes are being installed at a depth of about 100 meters. And this is what the geothermal driller looks like in action in the thermal video.

Heimann Sensor is proud to provide its high-quality thermopile array HTPA80x64 L3.9 for wan AIChef cooking systems that transform kitchen efficiency to a new level. Equipped with an AI-Driven heat control, temperature adjustments of ±3℃ are possible that automatically compensate for heat fluctuations. Our infrared array helps this AI driven technology to ensure a safe and clean cooking environment. Moreover, this intelligent cooking ecosystem by wan AIchef features multi-zone temperature control. Hence, it can handle different dish combos, e.g. rice, soup and vegetables, that they will become ready at the same time.

We are happy to announce that we now sell our new and cost-efficient Laser Beam Profiler including the relevant beam analysis software. Our high-resolution array sensors are equipped with various planar filters for use with different laser beams of varying wavelengths. Depending on the use case and equipment, it is possible to choose between a sensor with a pixel pitch of either 90μm (80×64) or 45μm (our highest resolution option 160×120). Depending on the sensor type, the Laser Beam Profiler comes either as a UDP module with an Ethernet port for 80x64 or as a USB Application Set for 160x120.

We are proud to be part of the PROACTIF project funded by the European Union’s Chips Joint Undertaking, in which we develop a special IR sensor for drones and other unmanned vehicle technologies (UxV). The German consortium brings together 42 leading European technology companies from 13 countries The consortium is developing an innovative multi-sensor module that automatically detects heat. This compact unit combines radar and infrared technology in which Heimann Sensor plays a crucial role. The combination of short- and long-range radar with three innovative packaging technologies results in a lightweight, robust system that can detect the precise location of pockets of embers in forest fires, even beneath the tree canopy. It anticipates generating around €90 million in revenue, 50 products, and more than 15 new industry patents by 2035, enabling increased market share and leadership. The project's additional impact includes dozens of new collaborations, hundreds of new jobs, and over €40 million of additional investments.
