Leti has become a major player of the digital revolution in the agriculture, food and environment sectors by offering technological solutions to the social problems faced by those affected.
Leti, leader in the digital revolution
CEA-Leti is developing lab-on-a-chip systems that deliver results in a matter of hours versus several days for pre-existing solutions.
How can we best monitor air quality, which is responsible for 4.2 million premature deaths per year worldwild? CEA-Leti is developing a number of sensor technologies, in particular high-performance, low-cost photoacoustic sensors, which would make it possible to increase the number of monitoring devices in the field.
The Epicool project is investigating the use of optics to cool epileptogenic areas in the brains of epilepsy patients resistant to other treatments. A prototype implantable device is currently being developed and will be miniaturized before animal testing begins.
CEA-Leti scientists, working with researchers at Politecnico di Milano, have developed the world's first high-performance gyroscope for operating in severe environments, such as industrial and aeronautic equipment and automobiles. The breakthrough proves it is possible to detect minute rotational movement even among system vibrations.
The city of San Francisco is keeping a close eye on air pollution with a little help from a startup from France and its real-time air-quality monitoring solution.
