About us

The last decades have seen breakthroughs in semiconductor laser technology and IT, which open up a whole new world of sensing and analysis. Innovative laser concepts can help to minimize the use of resources, reduce the emission of greenhouse gases or avoid invasive medical diagnosis.

Providing high-precision sensing systems for demanding applications, Photonic Sensing Systems (PSS) considerably enlarges the application possibilities of optical-based sensing.

We develop photonic sensing systems for real-time analysis of gas, liquid and solid components. Our devices can be customized for virtually any wavelength from below 1 µm to above 10 µm, permitting recalibration-free quantitative detection in situ with high sensitivity and, if needed, an ultracompact design.

PSS is based in Wuerzburg, Germany. As a fully vertically integrated company, we cover the entire technology chain from laser design to assembly at the highest level of quality.

Our highly qualified and motivated team is keen to explore new applications with and for our costumers.

Founded in 2024, Photonic Sensing Systems (PSS) is a fast-growing SME. We combine the drive and opendmindedness of a start-up company with a wealth of experience in photonic sensing systems, laser R&D, modeling and fabrication.

Laser-based sensing has been used chiefly in the commercial sector and recently, drawing on new developments in laser design for various sectors ranging from process control in industry and environment to automotive and health care. At Photonic Sensing Systems our focus is to develop costumer-specific liquid, gas or solid sensor systems based on photonics.
