The Technology

Our approach:

We are devoted in the development of next-generation solid-state LiDAR sensors, focusing on utilizing our patented FMCW LiDAR technology to provide new dimensions of data information.

Our USPs:

  • Long detection range of up to 300m with 1550nm wavelength

  • Unique velocity measurement setting the benchmark in fast object identification 

  • High robustness in tough environmental conditions

04 - Technology

"To ensure that our technology can reach its potential the packaging must ensure a precision of some micrometers and stability in a tough environment."

03 - Challenges

Our main challenges you will be working on

1

Downsizing

"Now we are talking about a device which is the size of a home printer.

But ideally, in two years, it's going to be as big as an camera system now.

Therefore we need to achieve new levels of integration and technology developments."

2

Scaling production 

"Currently we are in the proof of concept phase in which about 10 modules are enough. But already within 1 year we want to scale up to a batch size of about 100 pieces and within the next 3-4 years we want to reach serial production."

Tasks as a Photonic Packaging Expert

SCANTINEL-26_edited.png
  • Create the photonic packaging concept for advanced integrated optical sensors

  • Develop a gluing and assembly process for high precision optical components

  • Create chip and module packaging specifications and drive their implementation in close cooperation with international technology partners 

  • Testing and qualifying the packaged components 

  • Support the selection of partners and sub-contractors for chip and module packaging 

What makes working at Scantinel special?

In this short video, Frank and Alfredo will tell how the Scantinel's diversity and task variety create an exciting work environment.

Ulm, the city of your future workplace

With its 125000 inhabitants, Ulm is located in the heart

of Southern Germany. It is well known for its high-tech companies in and around the city.

Ulm offers everything you need to enjoy your life - from restaurants, culture and clubs over various possibilities for outdoor activities to big festivals in summer and winter.

Closely to the Alps (1h by car) it allows you to go for a hike whenever you feel like to.

Since Ulm marks the border between Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria, both Munich and Stuttgart can be reached within 90min by car or train.
