What? ISI is an R&D company that designs and manufactures laser-based remote sensing instrumentation for use in challenging environments.

What, exactly? High precision or high sensitivity spectrometers can now be used to measure a certain type of excitation of the observed molecule (Raman) and thus assess which elements are present in the field of view. LIDAR-based instrumentation allows to make remote, but high-resolution 3D maps. While the first applications of such instrumentation were often for space, they are now demonstrated for industrial, biomedical or nuclear industries.
