Fiber optic sensors enable accurate and dependable structural health monitoring systems that can span all sizes of structures and capture both static and dynamic phenomenon. Luna's monitoring system instrumentation includes optical interrogators, long-gage strain sensors, accelerometers, temperature sensors and tilt meters for crucial structural integrity measurements. 

Reliable photonic integrated circuits (PICs) are critical technology for meeting the exponentially growing demand for more functionality, reliability, integration, scalability, and size and power reduction. Fast, accurate and complete testing of PICs early and throughout the development cycle is essential.

Financial institutions, banks, and trading floors need to keep customer information and transactions safe, secure and compliant. And it all starts with a reliable, accurate fiber optic network system.

Recently members of the Luna team traveled to New York City to celebrate new company milestones in our quest to enable the future with fiber.

Widespread automotive lightweighting requires more reliable bonding and joining of composite materials. In-situ monitoring based on high-definition distributed fiber optic sensors is being used to provide real-time data to optimize and verify the joining processes.

For products with fabric cords, the ability to make online balance measurements has not been available - until now. Luna's terahertz sensor-- using reflections of an emitted energy pulse -- can provide safe, fast, accurate thickness measurements and simultaneously assess the balance of ply constructions.

New areas of technology for the aerospace industry include new materials, new processes and new sensors. By supplying specialized fiber optic components and technologies, Luna Innovations enables a new generation of commercial aircraft overheat detection systems.
