About Instrumems
Instrumems, headquartered in the heart of Silicon Valley, develops, and manufactures sensing solutions based on an innovative nanowire platform. The patented nanosensor technology was initially developed at Princeton University. Our award-winning multi-sense solution provides the industry with a versatile platform to simultaneously measure flow, temperature, and velocity of liquids and gases.
Instrumems’ technology is deployed at leading industrial and medical device manufacturers for multi-parameter measurements. Our customers benefit from unique characteristics of our sensors including industry-leading response time, accuracy, small size, and
ultra-low-power consumption. Breakthrough thermal conductivity measurements powered by machine learning algorithms also enables our multi-sense platform to detect and measure concentration of gases in known environments.
Our Vision
Instrumems’ vision is to bring smart sensing solution to every device. The small size allows our sensors to be integrated into any device. The very high frequency response enables real-time applications and leads to extremely low power consumption, which is ideal for small battery operated devices.
​
We strive to develop innovative solutions coupled with powerful algorithms and software that put our sensor at the cutting edge of technology.
