Caeleste is an innovative & dynamic company, offering full turnkey image sensor solutions to instrument integrators. We are specialized in the design & production of high-end, beyond-state-of-the-art custom CMOS image sensors. We also develop novel sensors for high energetic particles detection, X-rays, UV and NIR light.
Sensors customization offers a high added value thanks to the creation of a unique innovative product granting our customers a competitive advantage. Our innovation leaded to the authorship of a variety of novel cutting edge image sensor concepts and patents such as a scintillator-based X-ray detection sensor with photon-counting capability, and an image sensor with sub-electron read noise (0.21 electron noise) and high dynamic range (≥ 100 000:1).
