Ommatidia builds parallel Laser RADAR systems for engineering measurement.

We help engineering teams capture non-contact geometry, vibration and motion data across many points at once—so they can understand how a component or structure behaves before they make the next decision.

Parallel Laser RADAR for geometry, vibration and motion.

Ommatidia combines photonic integrated circuits, coherent detection and parallel measurement to give teams a practical route to dense, stand-off data. The goal is simple: reduce the setup burden of contact instrumentation and disconnected measurement tools when a target is large, difficult to access or dynamically complex.

Our systems support industrial metrology, structural dynamics, vibration testing and monitoring workflows. We start with the engineering question, then help define the measurement geometry, data outputs and deployment approach needed to answer it.

Questions about Ommatidia and its measurement systems

A concise guide to Ommatidia’s products, engineering workflows, parallel measurement technology and current authority contacts.

What does Ommatidia build?

Ommatidia builds coherent laser measurement systems for non-contact vibration, motion and 3D geometry. The portfolio spans QMini single-point laser Doppler vibrometry and the Q1S, Q1, Q2 and Q2S multi-point Laser RADAR platforms.

Which engineering workflows does Ommatidia support?

Ommatidia supports industrial metrology, structural dynamics, vibration testing, modal analysis, NVH, infrastructure monitoring and geometry-linked strain workflows. The systems deliver remote spatial data for large, moving and difficult-to-access targets.

How does Ommatidia measure many points in parallel?

Ommatidia combines photonic integrated circuits, coherent detection and parallel optical channels. Q1 measures 128 points per line, while Q2 and Q2S acquire 65 channels simultaneously; Q2 supports up to 1,300 points through 20× spatial oversampling.

Who are Ommatidia’s current authority contacts?

Ommatidia’s current company and technical authority contacts are Eduardo Margallo, Grégory Pandraud, Óscar Enríquez and Jose Luis Rubio. They connect measurement applications with the relevant engineering, product and commercial expertise.
