BEXUS-38: Ready for the Stratosphere! [ 10.15.2026 ]

Forschung bei Eureca

Tests passed, integration complete: The CLOUDS experiment featuring our dual-channel microspectrometer is preparing for launch from Esrange in northern Sweden. BEXUS-38 is expected to lift off on Saturday, 17 October, and reach an altitude of around 33 kilometres. We’re cheering the team on!

The Teledyne FLIR First Choice Program 2026 offers special pricing on cameras for evaluation, testing, and design-in projects. The offer is limited to two cameras per model and end customer.

For SWIR applications, we also help you match cameras, lenses, and filters to your specific requirements and budget.

Contact us—together, we'll find the right equipment for your next project!

EURECA is participating in the [quantumflexika] research project from October 2026 to September 2029 [ 9.29.2026 ]

Forschung bei Eureca

FLEXIKA for STEM: Students in Interdisciplinary Quantum Technologies.

In collaboration with the University of Osnabrück and the University of Paderborn, EURECA is researching didactic, multimedia-based, interactive teaching and learning concepts with the goal of engaging Generations Z and Alpha as future users and developers of quantum technologies.

The project is funded by the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology, and Space.

 

Eureca Messtechnik GmbH has specialized on supplying a large variety of CCD/CMOS sensors from different manufacturers. We try to supply (nearly) all suitable sensors for your application in every volumes.

We can deliver image sensors from Caeleste, CMOS-Sensor Inc., Sony, Toshiba and AMS (TAOS). Sensors from other manufacturers can be delivered on request.

From many sensor types we can supply also smaller volumes for evaluation purposes, which can be delivered fast from stock. Further we provide the service to supply obsolete sensors. For doing this we try to locate remaining stocks worldwide with the help of our partner companies.

Beside image sensors we offer many accessories as sockets and several services. We can e.g. remove the glass cover of many sensors and put on special filters onto the sensor. Further we can apply a special UV coating to the sensors, which increases the sensitivity in the ultraviolet spectral range.

For some sensors we can supply USB camera boards. Further we offer camera systems from different manufacturers.

We support you in developing your own camera systems and give you technical advise while selecting the most suitable accessories as e.g. lenses, filters, peltier elements, and many more.

Eureca supports projects from the initial idea to the ready-to-use solution. The portfolio includes sensor modifications, customer-specific CCD/CMOS sensor development (German representative office of Caeleste), line scan camera boards and photodiode amplifiers developed in-house, FLIR image processing cameras, CIS modules (representative office of CMOS Sensor Inc.), microspectrometers, and LED lighting, including dynamic plant lamps.

Modification of CCD/CMOS image sensors

Cover glasses are removed from image sensors, special filters are attached, or UV coatings are applied. This allows spectral sensitivities (including UV) to be specifically adjusted, stray light to be reduced, and defined pass/block ranges to be achieved. Optional: package modifications, low-particle assembly, optical function tests; from single units to small series.

Custom sensor development (Caeleste representative office)

When standard isn't enough: architecture (pixel design, ADC, dynamic range), readout concepts, interfaces, packaging, and qualification—with a focus on low dark current, high dynamics, or special spectral ranges. Eureca coordinates specifications, schedules, and prototyping.

Line scan camera boards & photodiode amplifiers

For OEM integrations: stable operation, low readout noise, trigger/strobe, USB/UART, Python sample codes. Used in spectroscopy, web inspection, and laser line profiling.

FLIR image processing cameras (distribution for Germany)

USB3/GigE, global/rolling shutter, C-mount, established SDK. Support with model and lens selection, bandwidth/trigger, lighting, synchronization, and thermal imaging.

CIS modules for scanning applications (representative office of CMOS Sensor Inc.)

Contact image sensors in various lengths/resolutions with matching illumination and readout electronics. Support for mechanics, cooling, clocking, and color/grayscale calibration.

Microspectrometers

Compact systems for absorption, transmission, and fluorescence, fiber-coupled, with dark and wavelength calibration as well as API (including Python) for quick integration in laboratories, teaching, or inline monitoring.

LED lighting & dynamic plant lamps

From high CRI/monochrome to multi-channel spectral control. For plant experiments: reproducible spectra and daily cycles (e. g., PPFD/DPAR) including documentation—suitable for research, teaching, and pilot applications.
